A review of chiral perturbation theory and that of recent developments on the comparison of its predictions with experiment is presented. Some interesting topics with scope for further elaboration are touched upon.

Masses of classical Cepheids of 3 to 11 M$\odot$ are predicted by theory but those measured, clump between 3.6 and 5 M$\odot$. As a result, their mass-luminosity relation is poorly constrained, impeding our understanding of basic stellar…

The talk contains a brief introduction string theory, followed by a discussion of some of the recent developments.

We present a census of eclipsing binary systems with classical Cepheid as a component. All such systems known were found in the OGLE collection of classical Cepheids in the Magellanic System. We extend the list of potential candidates…

This is a quick survey of theoretical and experimental efforts to understand and identify the Odderon.

We give a review of the status of the global effort to measure the sides of the CKM Unitarity Triangle.

Cepheid stars are crucial objects for a variety of topics that range from stellar pulsation and the evolution of intermediate-mass stars to the understanding the structure of the Galaxy and the Universe through the distance measurements…

We attempt to review all trustworthy and well-controlled de Sitter compactifications of string theory.

The current status of experimental searches for Bs oscillations is reviewed. The three ALEPH analyses have been improved since Summer 2001, and submitted for publication. The combination of all available analyses is presented and discussed.

In this review, we summarize recent developments in stochastic evolutionary game dynamics of finite populations.

For about 100 years the amplitude of the 4-day pulsation in Polaris has decreased. We present new results showing a significant increase in the amplitude based on 4.5 years of continuous monitoring from the ground and with two satellite…

We discuss a classical complexity of finite-dimensional unitary transformations, which can been seen as a computable approximation of classical descriptional complexity of a unitary transformation acting on a set of qubits.

Classical Cepheid stars have been considered since more than a century as reliable tools to estimate distances in the universe thanks to their Period-Luminosity (P-L) relationship. Moreover, they are also powerful astrophysical…

Work in progress concerning alternative formalizations of arithmetic.

Theoretical Period-Age and Period-Age-Color relations for different chemical compositions have been recently derived using an updated homogeneous set of evolutionary and pulsational models. We apply these relations to Cepheids in the…

I present an outline of chiral perturbation theory and discuss some recent developments in the field.

This is an intorduction to some of the basic methods and results of dense matter physics.It is aimed at readers interested in astrophysical and physical applications.

The status of some of the recently discovered heavy hadrons is presented.

This extended abstract was written to accompany an invited talk at the 2021 SC-Square Workshop, where the author was asked to give an overview of SC-Square progress to date. The author first reminds the reader of the definition of…

The majority of classical Cepheids are binary stars, yet the contribution of companions' light to the total brightness of the system has been assumed negligible and lacked a thorough, quantitative evaluation. We present an extensive study…
