Quartic propagators, negative norms and the physical spectrum [PDF]
Phys. Rev. D 96, 044007 (2017), 2017 Many arguments against quartic propagators, negative norm states and related effects concern the sicknesses which occur when the spectrum of the free particle Hamiltonian is formed. However, if the theory is more complicated, for example involving confinement such that the particle in question does not appear in the physical spectrum, those ...

Towards a Better Understanding of VR Sickness: Physical Symptom Prediction for VR Contents [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We address the black-box issue of VR sickness assessment (VRSA) by evaluating the level of physical symptoms of VR sickness. For the VR contents inducing the similar VR sickness level, the physical symptoms can vary depending on the characteristics of the contents. Most of existing VRSA methods focused on assessing the overall VR sickness score.

Modelling individual motion sickness accumulation in vehicles and driving simulators [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Users of automated vehicles will move away from being drivers to passengers, preferably engaged in other activities such as reading or using laptops and smartphones, which will strongly increase susceptibility to motion sickness. Similarly, in driving simulators, the presented visual motion with scaled or even without any physical motion causes an ...
