Off-shell unimodular N = 1, d = 4 supergravity
We formulate a unimodular N = 1, d = 4 supergravity theory off shell. We see that the infinitesimal Grassmann parameters defining the unimodular supergravity trans- formations are constrained and show that the conmutator of two infinitesinal unimodular ...

A light‐activated catheter insert combines antimicrobial blue light with nitric oxide release to generate complementary oxidative and nitrosative stress, producing potent broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity. The approach achieves greater than 4‐log reductions in bacterial and fungal viability and significantly reduces Staphylococcus aureus ...

Aspects of Quantum Gravity Phenomenology and Astrophysics
With the discovery of gravitational waves, the search for the quantum of gravity, the graviton, is imminent. We discuss the current status of the bounds on graviton mass from experiments as well as the theoretical understanding of these particles.

We develop bio‐based, star‐branched polyamides from itaconic acid and cadaverine with tunable lower critical solution temperature (LCST) transitions for dynamic solar modulation. Specific metal ion coordination with pyrrolidone moieties drives precise phase transitions via calcium‐induced salting‐in and sodium‐induced salting‐out mechanisms. Formulated

On the Emergence of Time in Quantum Gravity [PDF]
We discuss from a philosophical perspective the way in which the normal concept of time might be said to `emerge' in a quantum theory of gravity. After an introduction, we briefly discuss the notion of emergence, without regard to time (Section 2).

Equivalence Principle in Classical and Quantum Gravity
We give a general overview of various flavours of the equivalence principle in classical and quantum physics, with special emphasis on the so-called weak equivalence principle, and contrast its validity in mechanics versus field theory.

Conformal dimensions on causal random geometry
We investigate the interaction between matter and causal dynamical triangulations (CDT) in the context of two-dimensional quantum gravity. We focus on the Ising model coupled to CDT, contrasting this with Liouville gravity and the relation to the ...

Dual confinement in self‐assembled nanocoatings regulates polymer dynamics and hot‐carrier transport, enabling an interface‐rectification strategy for high‐temperature polymer capacitive energy storage. ABSTRACT Polymer film capacitors are indispensable for energy storage and power conversion, yet their energy density and efficiency deteriorate rapidly

Finite cut-off JT and Liouville quantum gravities on the disk at one loop
Within the path integral formalism, we compute the disk partition functions of two dimensional Liouville and JT quantum gravity theories coupled to a matter CFT of central charge c, with cosmological constant Λ, in the limit c → −∞, |Λ| → ∞, for fixed Λ ...
