Presentism and Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
There is a philosophical tradition of arguing against presentism, the thesis that only presently existing things exist, on the basis of its incompatibility with fundamental physics.

Implications of Quantum Gravity for Dark Matter Searches with Atom Interferometers

open access: yes, 2022
In this brief paper, we show that atom interferometer experiments such as MAGIS, AION and AEDGE do not only have the potential to probe very light dark matter models, but will also probe quantum gravity.

Magnetic Water Cleaning of Estrogens via Tight yet Dynamic Binding to Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micropollution is one of the big challenges humanity faces with estrogen hormones being emerging pollutants of concern. Here, a supramolecular design strategy is presented that generates a simple nano‐adsorbent material to magnetically remove low‐concentrated estrogens from water.

Hunting Quantum Gravity with Analogs: the case of graphene

open access: yes, 2022
Analogs of fundamental physical phenomena can be used in two ways. One way consists in reproducing specific aspects of the classical or quantum gravity of quantum fields in curved space or of other high-energy scenarios on lower-energy corresponding ...

Decoding Viral Transmission Dynamics in Structured Populations Using a Microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip experimentally recreates structured contact networks to quantify viral transmission dynamics. By controlling susceptible, infected, and non‐susceptible populations, the platform reveals how contact topology governs the reproduction number, outbreak propagation, herd‐immunity–like behavior, and intervention ...

Quantum Gravity: A Primer for Philosophers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
‘Quantum Gravity’ does not denote any existing theory: the field of quantum gravity is very much a ‘work in progress’. As you will see in this chapter, there are multiple lines of attack each with the same core goal: to find a theory that unifies, in ...

Combinatorial Quantum Gravity and Emergent 3D Quantum Behaviour

open access: yes, 2023
We review combinatorial quantum gravity, an approach that combines Einstein’s idea of dynamical geometry with Wheeler’s “it from bit” hypothesis in a model of dynamical graphs governed by the coarse Ollivier–Ricci curvature.

Gravitational action for a massive Majorana fermion in 2d quantum gravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We compute the gravitational action of a free massive Majorana fermion coupled to two-dimensional gravity on compact Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus. The structure is similar to the case of the massive scalar.

A solvable model of flat space holography

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We propose an explicit realization of flat space holography in two dimensions where both sides of the duality are independently defined and the boundary theory is completely solvable.

Water‐Soluble POSS Promotes Concurrent Coalescence and Crosslinking for Multiscale‐Reinforced, Coalescent‐Free Waterborne Coatings

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Water‐soluble amine‐functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane promotes concurrent latex coalescence and crosslinking, allowing epoxy‐functional particles to form continuous films without added volatile coalescing agents. The resulting multiscale‐reinforced waterborne coatings combine high strength, toughness, optical transparency, scratch ...
