On the Maximal Quantity of Processed Information in the Physical Eschatological Context
Milan M. Cirkovic, Marina Radujkov
An estimate of the maximal informational content available to advanced extraterrestrial or future (post)human civilizations is presented. It is shown that the fundamental thermodyn…
Observations and modelling of a large optical flare on AT Microscopii
D. Garcia-Alvarez, D. Jevremovic, J. G. Doyle +4
Spectroscopic observations covering the wavelength range 3600--4600Åare presented for a large flare on the late type M dwarf AT Mic (dM4.5e). A procedure to estimate the physical p…
Phase-resolved X-ray spectroscopy of the millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
Marek Gierlinski, Chris Done, Didier Barret
We present new results based on RXTE observations of SAX J1808.4-3658. The X-ray spectrum can be fitted by a two-component model. We interpret the soft component as blackbody emiss…
Anthropic Fluctuations vs. Weak Anthropic Principle
Milan M. Cirkovic
A modern assessment of the classical Boltzmann-Schuetz argument for large-scale entropy fluctuations as the origin of our observable cosmological domain is given. The emphasis is p…
Laudatores Temporis Acti, or Why Cosmology is Alive and Well - A Reply to Disney
Milan M. Cirkovic
A recent criticism of cosmological methodology and achievements by Disney (2000) is assessed. Some historical and epistemological fallacies in the said article have been highlighte…
Cosmological constant and the fate of the DDM theory
Milan M. Cirkovic, Srdjan Samurovic
We investigate the impact of the non-zero cosmological constant on the classical decaying dark matter theory developed by the late Dennis Sciama. In particular, we concentrate on t…
