相关论文: Some questions about Conformal Cyclic Cosmology

Cosmology contributes a good deal to the investigation of variation of fundamental physical constants. High resolution data is available and allows for detailed analysis over cosmological distances and a multitude of methods were developed.…

The International School on Cosmological Dark Matter held in Valencia in the fall of 1993 was devoted to the interplay of cosmology and particle physics, with the obvious emphasis on the Dark Matter issue. Here I present the expanded…

The $\Lambda$CDM cosmology passes demanding tests that establish it as a good approximation to reality. The theory is incomplete, of course, and open issues are being examined in active research programs. I offer a review of less widely…

The first version of these lecture notes is based on the hand-written notes I prepared for the cosmology course taught to graduate students of PPGFis and PPGCosmo at the Federal University of Esp\'irito Santo (UFES), starting in 2014. The…

A School on Loop Quantum Gravity was held at the IMSc during Sept 8 -- 18, 2009. In the first week a basic introduction to LQG was provided while in the second week the focus was on the two main application, to cosmology (LQC) and to the…

In this issue we demonstrate the very inspiring role of the continuous-time random walk (CTRW) formalism and its numerous modifications thanks to their flexibility and various applications as well its promising perspectives in different…

Quantum cosmology offers a unique stage to address questions of time related to its underlying (and perhaps truly quantum dynamical) meaning as well as its origin. Some of these issues can be analyzed with a general scheme of quantum…

This paper presents a comprehensive review of both the theory and experimental successes of Quantum Chromodynamics, starting with its emergence as a well defined theory in 1972-73 and following developments and results up to the present…

This article is an introduction for a theme issue following a Scientific Discussion Meeting on \emph{The next generation of analogue gravity experiments} held at the Royal Society in December 2019. This theme issue comprises a collection of…

This is a review article for The Review of Particle Physics 2014 (aka the Particle Data Book). It forms a compact review of knowledge of the cosmological parameters at the beginning of 2014. Topics included are Parametrizing the Universe;…

I summarize the highlights of "Cosmic Flows: Towards an Understanding of the Large-scale Structure in the Universe", a workshop held in Victoria, Canada in July 1999.

This is the text of a talk given at the conference in memory of Claude Itzykson at Saclay in June 1996. It contains an introductory survey and an account of recent developments in the field theoretic RG approach to reaction-diffusion…

In these lectures I cover various aspects of Chiral Symmetry in the hadronic world from a pre-QCD perspective. I also discuss the absence of spontaneous symmetry breaking in d=4 large N O(N) models.

In this talk, I review progress in experimental QCD in the last year, concentrating on the results and phenomenology of the first year of running of the LHC.

This is a slightly expanded version of my talk at Future Perspectives in Theoretical Physics and Cosmology, Stephen Hawking's 60th Birthday Worshop. I describe some of the issues that were important in gauged supergravity in the 1980's and…

This survey article on Hilbert's first and second problems is adapted from a one-hour colloquium lecture given at the University of Auckland in May, 2000, just three months before the 100th anniversary of Hilbert's lecture. It includes an…

A talk presented at International Conference ICMP-2000, London, England

The state of our understanding of cosmology is reviewed from an astrophysical cosmologist point of view with a particular emphasis given to recent observations and their impact. Discussion is then presented on the implications for particle…

The purpose of the New York Workshop on Computer, Earth and Space Sciences is to bring together the New York area's finest Astronomers, Statisticians, Computer Scientists, Space and Earth Scientists to explore potential synergies between…
