Sensitivity of Astrophysical Observations to Gravity-Induced Wave Dispersion in Vacuo
G. Amelino-Camelia, John Ellis, N. E. Mavromatos +2
We discuss possible signatures of quantum gravity for the propagation of light, including an energy-dependent velocity (refractive index), dispersion in velocity at a given energy,…
Cryptons: a stringy form of decaying superheavy dark matter, as a source of the ultra high energy cosmic rays
D. V. Nanopoulos
Cryptons, metastable bound states of matter in the string hidden sector, with dynamically determined masses M_X on the order of 10^{12} GeV and lifetimes tau_X greater than or on t…
Ferroelectrics and their possible involvement in Biology
N. E. Mavromatos, D. V. Nanopoulos, I. Samaras +1
We present the main properties of ferroelectricity, with emphasis given to a specific family of hydrated ferroelectric crystals, which can serve as model systems for corresponding…
Quantum Mechanics in Cell Microtubules: Wild Imagination or Realistic Possibility?
N. E. Mavromatos, D. V. Nanopoulos
We focus on potential mechanisms for `energy-loss-free' transport along the cell microtubules, which could be considered as realizations of Fröhlich's ideas on the role of solitons…
