Surface plasmon resonances of metallic nanostars/nanoflowers for surface-enhanced Raman scattering

V. Giannini, R. Rodriguez-Oliveros, J. A. Sanchez-Gil

We investigate theoretically the optical properties associated to plasmon resonances of metal nanowires with cross section given by low-order Chebyshev nanoparticles (like rounded-…

A Brief Introduction to Loop Quantum Cosmology

Guillermo A. Mena Marugan

In recent years, Loop Quantum Gravity has emerged as a solid candidate for a nonperturbative quantum theory of General Relativity. It is a background independent theory based on a…

Hybrid Quantum Cosmology: Combining Loop and Fock Quantizations

Guillermo A. Mena Marugan, Mercedes Martin-Benito

As a necessary step towards the extraction of realistic results from Loop Quantum Cosmology, we analyze the physical consequences of including inhomogeneities. We consider in detai…

Dynamical Aspects of Generalized Palatini Theories of Gravity

Gonzalo J. Olmo, Helios Sanchis-Alepuz, Swapnil Tripathi

We study the field equations of modified theories of gravity in which the lagrangian is a general function of the Ricci scalar and Ricci-squared terms in Palatini formalism. We sho…

Bouncing Cosmologies in Palatini Gravity

Carlos Barragan, Gonzalo J. Olmo, Helios Sanchis-Alepuz

We consider the early time cosmology of f(R) theories in Palatini formalism and study the conditions that guarantee the existence of homogeneous and isotropic models that avoid the…

The Infrared Nuclear Emission of Seyfert Galaxies on Parsec Scales: Testing the Clumpy Torus models

Cristina Ramos Almeida, Nancy A. Levenson, Jose Miguel Rodriguez Espinosa +6

We present subarcsecond resolution mid-infrared (mid-IR) photometry in the wavelength range from 8 to 20 micron of eighteen Seyfert galaxies, reporting high spatial resolution nucl…
