Unraveling the mystery of the cosmological constant: Does spacetime uncertainty hold the key?
Ahmed Farag Ali, Nader Inan
In addressing the cosmological constant problem, we propose that the discrepancy between the theoretical and observed values can be ascribed to the inherent uncertainty in the spac…
A new approach to detecting gravitational waves via the coupling of gravity to the zero-point energy of the phonon modes of a superconductor
Nader A. Inan
The response of a superconductor to a gravitational wave is shown to obey a London-like constituent equation. The Cooper pairs are described by the Ginzburg-Landau free energy dens…
Superconductor Meissner effects for gravito-electromagnetic fields in harmonic coordinates due to non-relativistic gravitational sources
Nader Inan
It is well known that a covariant Lagrangian for relativistic charged particles can lead to a vanishing Hamiltonian. Alternatively, it is shown that using a "space+time" Lagrangian…
Inductive rectilinear frame dragging and local coupling to the gravitational field of the universe
L. L. Williams, N. Inan
There is a drag force on objects moving in the background cosmological metric, known from galaxy cluster dynamics. The force is quite small over laboratory timescales, yet it appli…
Dynamical Casimir effect and the possibility of laser-like generation of gravitational radiation
R. Y. Chiao, J. S. Sharping, L. A. Martinez +4
In this paper, we address the question as to whether or not measurable sources for gravitational waves could possibly be made in the laboratory. Based on an analogy of the dynamica…
