Non-local bias and the problem of large-scale power in the Standard Cold Dark Matter model
A. Del Popolo, Y. Takahashi, H. Kiuchi +1
We study the effect of non-radial motions, originating from the gravitational interaction of the quadrupole moment of a protogalaxy with the tidal field of the matter of the neighb…

Surface Quantum Effects in a Fireball Model of Gamma Ray Bursts
R. Lieu, Y. Takahashi, T. W. B. Kibble +2
Recent rapid advances in the observations of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) lend much confidence to the cosmological fireball (FB) model: there is now compelling evidence that the radiati…

Gamma Ray Burst as Vacuum Discharge of Super-Schwinger Electric Fields
R. Lieu, Y. Takahashi, T. W. B. Kibble
A theory is proposed to explain with simplicity the basic observed properties of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB). It employs a well-known result of Schwinger, that static electric fields i…
