QCD vacuum replicas are metastable [PDF]
We study the meson spectra in the excited QCD vacua, denominated replicas. We find all mesons have real masses, with no tachyons, thus showing the QCD replicas are indeed metastable.

The immersive cave: the multimediality of prehistory between drawing, photography, cinema and 3D
The prehistoric cave can be considered a paradigmatic "image-environment" for its intimate relationship between images (rock paintings, graffiti, carved blocks) and the wall's geological morphology.
