We analyse the large-scale coherence of the CMB anisotropy field with non-gaussian initial conditions usind 2-point function of the power fluctuations in the wavelet space. Employing the multivariate Edgeworth expansion (MEE) we constrain…
The effects that large scale fluctuations had on small scale isothermal modes at the epoch of recombination are analysed. We find that: (a) Albeit the fact that primordial fluctuations were at this epoch still well in the linear regime, a…
Small thermodynamic systems exhibit peculiar behavior different from that observed in long-scale systems. Non-equilibrium processes taking place in those systems are strongly influenced by the presence of fluctuations which can be large.…
Based on recent perturbative and non-perturbative lattice calculations with almost quark flavors and the thermal contributions from photons, neutrinos, leptons, electroweak particles, and scalar Higgs bosons, various thermodynamic…
The non-equilibrium fluctuations of power flux in a fluidized granular media have been recently measured in an experiment [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 164301, 2004], which was announced to be a verification of the Fluctuation Relation (FR) by…
The spectrum of thermal gravitational waves is obtained by including the high frequency thermal gravitons created from extra-dimensional effect and is a new feature of the spectrum. The amplitude and spectral energy density of gravitational…
It has recently been shown that a Hagedorn phase of string gas cosmology can provide a causal mechanism for generating a nearly scale-invariant spectrum of scalar metric fluctuations, without the need for an intervening period of de Sitter…
Vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field induce current fluctuations in resistively shunted Josephson junctions that are measurable in terms of a physical power spectrum. In this paper we investigate under which conditions vacuum…
We continue to investigate possible signatures of a pre-inflationary anisotropic phase in two-point and three point correlation functions of the curvature perturbation for high-momentum modes which exit the horizon well after…
We present the results of a numerical investigation of three-dimensional decaying turbulence with statistically homogeneous and anisotropic initial conditions. We show that at large times, in the inertial range of scales: (i) isotropic…
Examining the reverse evolution of the universe from the present, long before reaching Planck density dynamics one expects major modifications from the de-coherent thermal equations of state, suggesting a prior phase that has macroscopic…
The acoustic peak in the CMB power spectrum is sensitive to causal processes and cosmological parameters in the early universe up to the time of last scattering. We provide limits on correlated spatial variations of the peak height and peak…
Nonlinear effects are crucial in order to compute the cosmological matter power spectrum to the accuracy required by future generation surveys. Here, a new approach is presented, in which the power spectrum, the bispectrum and higher order…
Matrix theory is a proposed non-perturbative definition of superstring theory in which space is emergent. Recently, it was shown that space-time can emerge with a scale-invariant spectrum of cosmological perturbations which is sourced by…
The viscous Cardassian cosmology is discussed, assuming that there is a bulk viscosity in the cosmic fluid. The dynamical analysis indicates that there exists a singular curve in the phase diagram of viscous Cardassian model. In the viscous…
Magnetic field fluctuations in the vicinity of the Earth's bow shock have been investigated with the aim to characterize the intermittent behaviour of strong plasma turbulence. The observed small-scale intermittency may be the signature of…
We measure the power spectrum of the density distribution of a freely expanding 2D degenerate Bose gas, where irregular density modulations gradually develop due to the initial phase fluctuations in the sample. The spectrum has an…
In this paper, we calculate the spectrum of scalar field fluctuations in a bouncing, asymptotically flat Universe, and investigate the dependence of the result on changes in the physics on length scales shorter than the Planck length which…
In ultracold gases many experiments use atom imaging as a basic observable. The resulting image is averaged over a number of realizations and mostly only this average is used. Only recently the noise has been measured to extract physical…
We investigate the thermal instability of a smooth equilibrium state, in which the density function satisfies Schwarzschild's (instability) condition, to a compressible heat-conducting viscous flow without heat conductivity in the presence…
