We calculate the electrical conductivity in the early universe at temperatures below as well as above the electroweak vacuum scale, $T_c\simeq 100$GeV. Debye and dynamical screening of electric and magnetic interactions leads to a finite…
The electrical conductivity has been calculated in the early universe at temperatures below as well as above the electroweak vacuum scale, $T_c\simeq 100$GeV. Debye and dynamical screening of electric and magnetic interactions leads to a…
Inflation has been the leading early universe scenario for two decades, and has become an accepted element of the successful `cosmic concordance' model. However, there are many puzzling features of the resulting theory. It requires both…
Conservation of current and conservation of charge are nearly the same thing: when enough is known about charge movement, conservation of current can be derived from conservation of charge, in ideal dielectrics, for example. Conservation of…
Very recently, it has been shown by the author that the Standard Model Higgs cannot be a physical particle. Here, on most general grounds it is established that as per the Standard Model there is no electric charge above the electro-weak…
Trace charge imbalances can explain puzzling cosmological observations such as the large `missing' fraction of electrons in cosmic rays and their contrast to the charge-neutral solar wind, the extreme energy sources that sustain pulsars,…
In this work we consider quantum electromagnetic fields in an expanding universe. We start by reviewing the difficulties found when trying to impose the Lorenz condition in a time-dependent geometry. Motivated by this fact, we explore the…
Electrically charged systems bound by a strong gravitational force can sustain a huge amount of electric charge (up to 10^20C) against Coulomb repulsion. General relativistically such systems form a stable hydrostatic configuration both in…
Despite the success of Maxwell's electromagnetism in the description of the electromagnetic interactions on small scales, we know very little about the behaviour of electromagnetic fields on cosmological distances. Thus, it has been…
We show that if photon possesses a tiny but non-vanishing mass the universe cannot be electrically neutral. Cosmological electric asymmetry could be generated either at an early stage by different evaporation rates of primordial black holes…
It has been recently claimed that cosmologies with time dependent speed of light might solve some of the problems of the standard cosmological scenario, as well as inflationary scenarios. In this letter we show that most of these models,…
The present-day Universe appears to be homogeneous on very large scales. Yet when the casual structure of the early Universe is considered, it becomes apparent that the early Universe must have been highly inhomogeneous. The current…
Theoretically, the electric charge of the tau neutrino may be non-zero. The experimental bound on the electric charge of the tau neutrino is many orders of magnitude weaker than that for any other known neutrino. If the tau neutrino does…
It has been proven recently that the Standard Model of particle physics has electric charge quantization built into it. It has also been shown by the author that there was no electric charge in the early universe. Further it is shown here…
The time evolution properties of charge current for the one-dimensional Hubbard model in an electric field have been studied in a rigorous manner. We find that there is a complete and orthonormal set of time-evolution states for which the…
Light fields get large scale fluctuations during inflation. If some of them are electrically charged, then large scale fluctuations of the electric charge will be generated. As a consequence, any finite portion of the Universe, including…
It is shown, for the first time , that surprisingly the electric charge loses all physical meaning above the electro-weak phase transition temperature. Implications of this discovery in the context of the early universe within the framework…
We consider classical electromagnetic systems in which the current density ${\bf J}$ does not change with time, but has nonzero divergence, so that electric charge does build up steadily over time. We show that for such a system, the…
The origin and maintenance of coherent magnetic fields in the Universe is reviewed with an emphasis on the possible challenges that arise in their theoretical understanding. We begin with the interesting possibility that magnetic fields…
Schwinger's idea about the magnetic world of the early Universe, in which magnetic charges (monopoles) and magnetic atoms (g$^{+}$g$^{-}$) could be formed, is developed. In the present-day Universe magnetic charges with energies in the GeV…
