We reflect on the life and influence of the academic journal, charting their history and contributions, discussing how their influence changed society, and examining how in death they will be mourned for what they initially stood for but in…
The introduction to this review summarizes chromosphere observation in two figures. The first part showcases the historical emphasis on the eclipse chromosphere in the development of NLTE line formation theory and criticizes 1D modeling.…
This article (which appeared with illustrations) was the astrophysics/cosmology contribution to the historical series ``Pathways of Discovery'' which appeared in ``Science'' during last year.
In [G. Garcia-Calderon, J. L. Mateos, and M. Moshinsky, Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 337 (1995)], the time evolution of the quantum decay of a state initially located within an interaction region of finite range was investigated. In particular, it…
We give some personal reflections on the person and scientist Lars Brink and on some of his scientific achievements. Our relations to Lars are briefly described in [1] and [2], while the sources relevant for this text are summarised in [3].
Reproducibility is a confused terminology. In this paper, I take a fundamental view on reproducibility rooted in the scientific method. The scientific method is analysed and characterised in order to develop the terminology required to…
It is proposed here that all successful and complete theories always proceed through an intermediate stage of instrumentalism to the final stage of realism. Examples from history of science (both classical and modern) in support of this…
This is a brief review of recent experimental and theoretical works aiming at extracting spectroscopic information from quasielasic projectile breakup reactions at intermediate energies.
Title: An unlikely result Authors: T.M. Other Comments: This paper has been withdrawn Abstract: This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the fact that some of the results turned out to be known.
This is an English translation of the obituary notice by Beno Eckmann, appearing in Elemente der Mathematik 47.3 (1992) 118--122 (in German).
This article has been withdrawn by arXiv administrators due to excessive unattributed and verbatim text overlap with the pre-existing Wikipedia article on redshift
The current status of the theoretical and observational cosmology is reviewed.
The long story of the oscillatory approach to the initial cosmological singularity and its more recent incarnation in multidimensional universe models is told.
Cirillo and Taleb [Nature Phys. 16, 606-613 (2020)] study the size of major epidemics in human history in terms of the number of fatalities. Using the figures from 72 epidemics, from the plague of Athens (429 BC) to the COVID-19…
The exponential growth in the number of scientific papers makes it increasingly difficult for researchers to keep track of all the publications relevant to their work. Consequently, the attention that can be devoted to individual papers,…
Rumor and information spreading are natural processes that emerge from human-to-human interaction. Mathematically, this was explored in the popular Maki-Thompson model, where a phase transition was thought to be absent. Here, we show that a…
In the last two decades recurrence plots (RPs) were introduced in many different scientific disciplines. It turned out how powerful this method is. After introducing approaches of quantification of RPs and by the study of relationships…
A review of the Gaia mission and its science performance after one year of operations will be presented, and the contribution to reconstructing the history of the Milky Way will be outlined.
The story of (Ward-)Takahashi relations and their impact on physical theory is reviewed.
The time evolution of Mach-like structure (the splitting of the away side peak in di-hadron $\Delta\phi$ correlation) is presented in the framework of a dynamical partonic transport model. With the increasing of the lifetime of partonic…
