Testing Tachyon-Dominated Cosmology with Type Ia Supernovae
Samuel H. Kramer, Ian H. Redmount
An open or hyperbolic Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime dominated by tachyonic dark matter can exhibit an ``inflected'' expansion -- initially decelerating, later accelerating -…
Music of the Spheres: Teaching Quantum Field Theory at the Introductory Level
Ian H. Redmount
Quantum field theory has formed the conceptual framework of most of physics for more than sixty years. It incorporates a complete revision of our conception of the nature of matter…
Dynamics of Tachyonic Dark Matter
James M. Starke, Ian H. Redmount
Usually considered highly speculative, tachyons can be treated via straightforward Einsteinian dynamics. Kinetic theory and thermodynamics for a gas of ``dark'' tachyons are readil…
Observable Features of Tachyon-Dominated Cosmology
Audrey Claire Martin, Ian H. Redmount
A Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological model dominated by tachyonic -- faster-than-light -- dark matter can exhibit features similar to those of a standard dark energy/dark matt…
Localized Particle States and Dynamics Gravitational Effects
Ian H. Redmount
Scalar particles--i.e., scalar-field excitations--in de Sitter space exhibit behavior unlike either classical particles in expanding space or quantum particles in flat spacetime. T…
Coupled Classical and Quantum Oscillators
Rachael M. McDermott, Ian H. Redmount
Some of the most enduring questions in physics--including the quantum measurement problem and the quantization of gravity--involve the interaction of a quantum system with a classi…
