Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 11, 9 June 2026.Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019 Mimetic gravity can be described as a formulation capable of mimicking different evolutionary scenarios regarding the universe dynamics. Notwithstanding its initial aim of producing a similar evolution to the one expected from the dark components of the ...

Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 6, June 2026.This study examines slowly rotating traversable wormholes supported by string fluids whose properties change with radius. The matter smoothly shifts from a de Sitter‐like core to a string‐dominated exterior, producing a regular, horizon‐free spacetime.

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We show that the simplest FLRW cosmological system consisting in the homo- geneous and isotropic massless Einstein-Scalar system enjoys a hidden conformal symmetry under the 1D conformal group SL(2, ℝ) acting as Mobius transformations in proper time ...

Work Versus Force: Simultaneous Processes for Describing Interactions
Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Achieving a unified description of interactions remains an open challenge in theoretical physics, which currently describes four fundamental forces. This situation may be viewed differently when interactions are formulated in terms of processes (work as actio) rather than forces (force as actio), not only at the macroscopic level but also at ...

Cosmology from quantum potential
Physics Letters B, 2015 It was shown recently that replacing classical geodesics with quantal (Bohmian) trajectories gives rise to a quantum corrected Raychaudhuri equation (QRE).

Background Instability of Quintessence Model in Light of Entropy and Distance Conjecture
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT We apply the covariant entropy bound argument supporting the de Sitter swampland conjecture to the quintessence model, to find out the condition for the background to be unstable. More concretely, the background is unstable when the matter entropy given by the species number of the effective field theory increases more rapidly than the ...
