Strong Electroweak Phase Transition in a Model with Extended Scalar Sector by Mina Saeedhosseini, Ali Tofighi

“…Due to this first-order phase transition in the early universe gravitational waves are produced. We estimate the contributions such as the sound wave, the bubble wall collision, and the plasma turbulence to the stochastic gravitational wave background, and we find that the strength at the peak frequency is large enough to be detected at future gravitational interferometers such as eLISA. …”

Interesting Examples of Violation of the Classical Equivalence Principle but Not of the Weak One by Antonio Accioly, Wallace Herdy

“…Two semiclassical violations of the classical equivalence principle (CEP) but not of the weak one (WEP), i.e., Greenberger gravitational Bohr atom and the tree-level scattering of different quantum particles by an external weak higher-order gravitational field, are thoroughly investigated afterwards. …”

Exact Travelling Wave Solutions for Isothermal Magnetostatic Atmospheres by Fan Subequation Method by Hossein Jafari, Maryam Ghorbani, Chaudry Masood Khalique

“…The equations of magnetohydrostatic equilibria for a plasma in a gravitational field are investigated analytically. An investigation of a family of isothermal magnetostatic atmospheres with one ignorable coordinate corresponding to a uniform gravitational field in a plane geometry is carried out. …”

A Possible Solution of the Cosmological Constant Problem Based on GW170817 and Planck Observations with Minimal Length Uncertainty by Abdel Magied Diab, Abdel Nasser Tawfik

“…Utilizing features of the UV/IR correspondence and the apparent similarities between GUP (including nongravitating and gravitating impacts on Heisenberg uncertainty principle) and the discrepancy between the theoretical and the observed cosmological constant Λ (obviously manifesting gravitational influences on the vacuum energy density), known as catastrophe of nongravitating vacuum, we suggest a possible solution for this long-standing physical problem, Λ≃10−47 GeV4/ℏ3c3.…”

Modelling of Spacecraft Dynamics at Deployment of Large Elastic Structure by V. S. Khoroshilov, A. E. Zakrzhevskii

“…In this paper, a new approach to the modelling of the deployment dynamics of a flexible multi-body system with the time dependent configurations is demonstrated in the frame of the study the dynamics of a spacecraft with the gyro-gravitational system of stabilization. Primarily the gravitational stabilizer that is made as a pantograph structure is in a compact form. …”
