Evolution of large-scale scalar perturbations in the presence of stiff solid (solid with pressure to energy density ratio > 1/3) is studied. If the solid dominated the dynamics of the universe long enough, the perturbations could end up…
Hardening of cosmic proton- and nuclei-spectra is explained by using the gluon condensation (GC) model, which states that a large amount of gluons in proton may condense near the high energy threshold. The results present the GC-effect as…
The gluon propagator plays a central role in determining the dynamics of QCD. In this work we demonstrate for BRST quantised QCD that the Dyson-Schwinger equation imposes significant analytic constraints on the structure of this propagator.…
It is well-known that allowing for spatial curvature affects constraints on cosmological parameters such as the dark energy equation of state parameters. Here we study the effect of curvature on constraints on parameters used to test…
In these proceedings, I shall review the basic concepts of perturbative QCD in its high-energy limit. I shall concentrate on the approach to the unitarity limit, usually referred to as saturation, as well as on the gluon-number fluctuations…
We reconsider quantum gravitational threshold effects to the unification of fermion masses in Grand Unified Theories. We show that the running of the Planck mass can have a sizable effect on these thresholds which are thus much more…
After a short description of the currents coming from the known conservation laws in classical physics, we look at some further cases which arise after quantization in relation to quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at finite temperature. In these…
Since electrons in a ballistic regime perceive a carbon nanotube or a graphene layer structure as a continuous medium, we can use the study of the quantum dynamics of one electron constrained to a curve or surface to obtain a qualitative…
We show that the inclusion of parton density effects in the perturbative small-x evolution reduces the strength of the powerlike growth of total hadronic cross sections.
When probed at very high energies or small Bjorken x_bj, QCD degrees of freedom manifest themselves as a medium of dense gluon matter called the Color Glass Condensate. Its key property is the presence of a density induced correlation…
The production of a Higgs boson in association with at least two jets receives contributions both from the fusion of weak vector bosons (VBF) and from QCD processes, especially gluon fusion (GF). The former process is important for…
This paper analyses the cosmological consequences of a modified theory of gravity whose action integral is built from a linear combination of the Ricci scalar $R$ and a quadratic term in the covariant derivative of $R$. The resulting…
Recently it has been shown that the cosmological dynamics of covariant $f(Q)$ gravity depend on different affine connections. In this paper, two specific $f(Q)$ models are investigated with SNe+CC+BAO+QSO observational data, and the spatial…
We derive equations for the time evolution of the reduced density matrix of a collection of heavy quarks and antiquarks immersed in a quark gluon plasma. These equations, in their original form, rely on two approximations: the weak coupling…
We propose an evolution equation for unintegrated gluon densities that is valid for large values of the QCD coupling constant $\bar{\alpha} _s$. Our approach is based on the linear resummation model introduced by Sta\'{s}to. We generalize…
The effects of confining molecular hydrogen within carbon nanohorns are studied via high-resolution quasielastic and inelastic neutron spectroscopies. Both sets of data are remarkably different from those obtained in bulk samples in the…
Rotation has a number of important effects on the evolution of stars. It decreases the surface gravity, causes enhanced mass loss and leads to surface abundance anomalies of various chemical isotopes. We have adapted the Cambridge stellar…
We show that the saturation exponent is more effective than the hard pomeron exponent in the nonlinear terms for the GLR-MQ evolution equations. For the gluon distribution the nonlinear terms are found to play an increasingly important role…
Contrary to field theoretical calculations in the thermodynamic limit where the volume is assumed to be infinitely large, the heavy-ion collisions always carry the effects of finite size. A sufficiently small system size is expected to…
We describe a new method for adding a prescribed amount of kinetic energy to simulated gas modeled on a cartesian grid by directly altering grid cells' mass and velocity in a distributed fashion. The method is explored in the context of…
