Does Quantum Mechanics Clash with the Equivalence Principle – and Does it Matter? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With an eye on developing a quantum theory of gravity, many physicists have recently searched for quantum challenges to the equivalence principle of general relativity.

A Cable‐Driven Parallel Wire Robot for Probe Positioning and Tissue Palpation on Curved Phantoms

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A wearable cable‐driven parallel robot is introduced for autonomous ultrasound probe positioning and soft tissue palpation on curved surfaces. By combining visual feedback with tension‐optimized control, the system achieves millimeter‐scale positioning accuracy while enforcing safety force constraints.

Spontaneous Long‐Range Order and Alignment in Phase‐Separated Dynamic Covalent Networks Using Discrete Siloxanes

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Spontaneously aligned, long‐range hexagonal columnar ordering is obtained in phase‐separated dynamic covalent networks by combining discrete siloxanes and dynamic acylsemicarbazide bonds. The ordered network shows improved (thermo)mechanical properties and creep resistance compared to the disordered network.

A study of the SYK2 model with twisted boundary conditions

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We study a version of the 2-body Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK2) model whose complex fermions exhibit twisted boundary conditions on the thermal circle. As we show, this is physically equivalent to coupling the fermions to a 1-dimensional external gauge field A(

Cosmological attractors and anisotropies in two measure theories, effective EYMH systems, and off-diagonal inflation models

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
Applying the anholonomic frame deformation method, we construct various classes of cosmological solutions for effective Einstein–Yang–Mills–Higgs, and two measure theories.

Further results on geometric operators in quantum gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We investigate some properties of geometric operators in canonical quantum gravity in the connection approach `a la Ashtekar, which are associated with volume, area and length of spatial regions.

Fatigue‐Driven Adaptive Assistance for a Semi‐Active Upper‐Limb Occupational Exoskeleton

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Physical fatigue during a physical activity is estimated in real time to enable adaptive exoskeleton assistance. By continuously adjusting the level of support according to the user’s fatigue, this approach reduces physical demand and provides a pathway toward personalized exoskeleton assistance.

Horizon entropy with loop quantum gravity methods

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2015
We show that the spherically symmetric isolated horizon can be described in terms of an SU(2) connection and an su(2)-valued one-form, obeying certain constraints.

A Hybrid Magnetic Actuation System for Single‐Input Multistates Stabilization: Application to pH‐Responsive Drug Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents an integrated proof‐of‐concept robotic platform for targeted delivery applications. A hybrid magnetic actuation system achieves single‐input (z) multistate stabilization (x, y, ϕ, and θ) for precise capsule transport with submillimeter positioning accuracy.

Pathway Complexity Defines the Shape of Nucleic Acid‐Loaded Polyion Complex Micelles: Spheroids vs. Hexagonal Disks

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Same building blocks, different destinies. Pathway complexity directs nucleic acid–loaded polyion complex micelles along distinct assembly trajectories, resulting in either hexagonally shaped or spheroidal nanoparticles with distinct internal structuring.
