Quantum corrections for the cubic Galileon in the covariant language

Ippocratis D. Saltas, Vincenzo Vitagliano

We present for the first time an explicit exposition of quantum corrections within the cubic Galileon theory including the effect of quantum gravity, in a background- and gauge-inv…

The signal of ill-defined CPT weakening entanglement in the system

Jose Bernabeu, Francisco J. Botella, Nick E. Mavromatos +1

In the presence of quantum gravity fluctuations (space-time foam), the CPT operator may be ill-defined. Its perturbative treatment leads to a modification of the Einstein-Podolsky-…

Double Field Theory at SL(2) angles

Franz Ciceri, Giuseppe Dibitetto, J. J. Fernandez-Melgarejo +2

An extended field theory is presented that captures the full SL(2) x O(6,6+n) duality group of four-dimensional half-maximal supergravities. The theory has section constraints whos…

The CoRoT target HD49933: a possible seismic signature of heavy elements ionization in the deep convective zone

Ana Brito, Ilídio Lopes

We use a seismic diagnostic, based on the derivative of the phase shift of the reflected by the surface acoustic waves, to probe the outer layers of the star HD 49933. This diagnos…

Link invariants from finite categorical groups

Joao Faria Martins, Roger Picken

We define an invariant of tangles and framed tangles given a finite crossed module and a pair of functions, called a Reidemeister pair, satisfying natural properties. We give sever…

Table-top laser-based proton acceleration in nanostructured targets

M. Blanco, M. T. Flores-Arias, C. Ruiz +1

The interaction of ultrashort, high intensity laser pulses with thin foil targets leads to ion acceleration on the target rear surface. To make this ion source useful for applicati…

Duality and topology

P. D. Sacramento, V. R. Vieira

Mappings between models may be obtained by unitary transformations with preservation of the spectra but in general a change in the states. Non- canonical transformations in general…

Invariant measures for the non-periodic two-dimensional Euler equation

Ana Bela Cruzeiro, Alexandra Symeonides

We construct Gaussian invariant measures for the two-dimensional Euler equation on the plane. We show the existence of solution with initial conditions in the support of the measur…

Combined fit of spectrum and composition data as measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory

The Pierre Auger Collaboration, A. Aab, P. Abreu +397

We present a combined fit of a simple astrophysical model of UHECR sources to both the energy spectrum and mass composition data measured by the Pierre Auger Observatory. The fit h…

Type II origin of dyonic gaugings

Gianluca Inverso, Henning Samtleben, Mario Trigiante

Dyonic gaugings of four-dimensional supergravity typically exhibit a richer vacuum structure compared to their purely electric counterparts, but their higher-dimensional origin oft…

Kinematic restrictions on particle collisions near extremal black holes: A unified picture

Filip Hejda, Jiří Bičák

In 2009, Banados, Silk and West (BSW) pointed out the possibility of having an unbounded limit of centre-of-mass collision energy for test particles in the field of an extremal Ker…

Security of a single-state semi-quantum key distribution protocol

Wei Zhang, Daowen Qiu, Paulo Mateus

Semi-quantum key distribution protocols are allowed to set up a secure secret key between two users. Compared with their full quantum counterparts, one of the two users is restrict…

An Information-theoretic Approach to Machine-oriented Music Summarization

Francisco Raposo, David Martins de Matos, Ricardo Ribeiro

Music summarization allows for higher efficiency in processing, storage, and sharing of datasets. Machine-oriented approaches, being agnostic to human consumption, optimize these a…

Constraining Black Holes with Light Boson Hair and Boson Stars using Epicyclic Frequencies and QPOs

Nicola Franchini, Paolo Pani, Andrea Maselli +4

Light bosonic fields are ubiquitous in extensions of the Standard Model. Even when minimally coupled to gravity, these fields might evade the assumptions of the black-hole no-hair…
