Transport properties in the Horndeski holographic two-currents model
The transport features of the holographic two-currents model are investigated in the Horndeski gravity framework. This system displays metallic or insulating characteristics depending on whether the Horndeski coupling parameter $$\gamma $$ γ is negative ...

Nature's Complexity Alive: Farewell to Several Unificatory Cosmological Arguments for Monism
ABSTRACT Throughout history, numerous thinkers have claimed that monism—in the form of priority monism, existence monism, monotheistic monism, or versions that posit an extra‐cosmic ultimate being—theoretically surpasses pluralism, above all by positing a unified universe.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Analytical fuzzy soliton solutions of a modified space–time fractional ϕ4$$ {\phi}^4 $$ model are derived using EHFM, capturing memory effects and uncertainty. Results reveal diverse wave structures and show how fractional order and fuzziness significantly influence soliton amplitude, localization, and propagation, with heightened sensitivity near the ...

ABSTRACT Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962) was a blockbuster publication that problematized notions about the origins and nature of scientific revolutions. What became Kuhn's famous rubrics of “normal science” and “paradigms” were similar to concepts of “tacit knowledge” and scientific “frameworks” or “dogmas” in Michael ...

QUANTUM COSMOLOGIES AND THE “BEGINNING”
Abstract. The cosmology proposed by Stephen Hawking has been understood as support for an atheistic stance, due mainly to its view of the nature of time in combination with the absence of explicit boundary conditions. Against such a view, this article argues that one might develop a theistic understanding of the Universe in the context of Hawking's ...

Equivalence of Models in Loop Quantum Cosmology and Group Field Theory
The paradigmatic models often used to highlight cosmological features of loop quantum gravity and group field theory are shown to be equivalent, in the sense that they are different realizations of the same model given by harmonic cosmology.

Gravitational Fluctuations as an Alternative to Inflation III. Numerical Results
Power spectra play an important role in the theory of inflation, and their ability to reproduce current observational data to high accuracy is often considered a triumph of inflation, largely because of a lack of credible alternatives.
