UV-extending ghost inflation

We present a setup that provides a partial UV-completion of the ghost inflation model up to a scale which can be almost as high as the Planck mass. This is achieved by coupling the inflaton to the Lorentz-violating sector described by the Einstein-aether t ...

First-principles insights into the structure of the incipient magnesium oxide and its instability to decomposition: Oxygen chemisorption to Mg(0001) and thermodynamic stability

Michael Frederick Francis

In this paper, a detailed density functional theory analysis of oxygen binding to Mg(0001) and subsequent clustering is presented. Oxygen monomer adsorption to Mg(0001) is demonstrated to be subsurface. It is shown that magnesium mediates an attractive oxy ...

Non-existence of multiple-black-hole solutions close to Kerr-Newman

Willie Wai Yeung Wong

We show that a stationary asymptotically flat electro-vacuum solution of Einstein's equations that is everywhere locally "almost isometric" to a Kerr-Newman solution cannot admit more than one event horizon. Axial symmetry is not assumed. In particular thi ...

Models of non-relativistic quantum gravity: the good, the bad and the healthy

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Horava's proposal for non-relativistic quantum gravity introduces a preferred time foliation of space-time which violates the local Lorentz invariance. The foliation is encoded in a dynamical scalar field which we call 'khronon'. The dynamics of the khrono ...

Discontinuous Galerkin method for computing gravitational waveforms from extreme mass ratio binaries

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Gravitational wave emission from extreme mass ratio binaries (EMRBs) should be detectable by the joint NASA-ESA LISA project, spurring interest in analytical and numerical methods for investigating EMRBs. We describe a discontinuous Galerkin (dG) method fo ...

A theoretical study of disorder and decomposition in multinary nitrides hard coatings materials

Björn Alling

The development of multinary nitrides materials has revolutionised the hard coatings industry over the last 20 years. Especially important materials systems in this matter have been TiAlN and CrAlN which shows higher hardness, better oxidation resistance a ...

IMEX Evolution of Scalar Fields on Curved Backgrounds

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

Inspiral of binary black holes occurs over a time-scale of many orbits, far longer than the dynamical time-scale of the individual black holes. Explicit evolutions of a binary system therefore require excessively many time-steps to capture interesting dyna ...

Black hole bound on the number of species and quantum gravity at CERN LHC

Michele Redi

In theories with a large number N of particle species, black hole physics imposes an upper bound on the mass of the species equal to M-Planck/root N. This bound suggests a novel solution to the hierarchy problem in which there are N approximate to 10(32) g ...

The theta parameter in loop quantum gravity: effects on quantum geometry and black hole entropy

Danilo Jimenez Rezende

The precise analog of the theta-quantization ambiguity of Yang-Mills theory exists for the real SU(2) connection formulation of general relativity. As in the former case theta labels representations of large gauge transformations, which are super-selection ...
