After finding a solution for the Hayward regular black hole (HRBH) in massive gravity, we embed the (3+1)-dimensional HRBHs both in massless and in massive gravities into (5+2)- and (6+3)-dimensional Minkowski spacetimes, respectively. Here, massive...
In this work, we search for observational evidence of higher-order secular perturbations in three eclipsing binaries. These are slightly eccentric binaries, and they form the inner pairs of tight, compact, hierarchical triple star systems. Simultaneo...
Motivated by the neutron lifetime puzzle, it is proposed that neutrons may decay into new states yet to be observed. We review the neutron star constraints on dark fermions carrying unit baryon number with masses around 939 MeV, and discuss the inter...
The top quark plays a central role in particle physics, as many experiments at the Large Hadron Collider scrutinize its properties within the Standard Model. Although most of the measurements of the top quarks today concentrate on production modes in...
We revisit the problem of constructing consistent interactions between a massive spin-3/2 field and a partially massless graviton in four-dimensional (anti) de Sitter (A)dS
In the framework of the Einstein–Dirac-aether theory we consider a phenomenological model of the spontaneous growth of the fermion number, which is triggered by the dynamic aether. The trigger version of spinorization of the early Universe is a...
The detection and analysis of molecular clumps can lead to a better understanding of star formation in the Milky Way. Herein, we present a molecular-clump-detection method based on improved YOLOv5 joint Density Peak Clustering (DPC). The method emplo...
Aiming to answer an interesting question on why some radio sources can be detected by Fermi-LAT but others cannot, we compare several parameters of Fermi-detected Fanaroff-Riley radio galaxies (FFRs) and non-Fermi-detected sources (NFFRs), including...
Recently, we put forward a framework where the dark matter (DM) component within virialized halos is subject to a non-local interaction originated by fractional gravity (FG) effects. In previous works, we demonstrated that such a framework can substa...
Telescopes such as the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey have produced an extensive collection of spectra, challenging the feasibility of manual classification in terms of accuracy and efficiency. To...
The idea of quantum mechanical vacuum energy contributing to the cosmological vacuum energy density is not new. However, despite the persisting cosmological constant problem, few investigations have focused on this subject. We explore the possibility...
As of February 2022, over 4900 exoplanets have been confirmed. In this study, we conducted statistical analyses on both the exoplanets and their host stars’ parameters. Our findings suggest that the radius and true mass distribution of the exop...
Following solar flares (SF), the abrupt increase in X-radiation and EUV emission generates additional ionization and higher absorption of, e.g., electromagnetic waves in the sunlit hemisphere of the Earth’s ionosphere. The modeling of the ionos...
It is possible that the proton is stable while atomic hydrogen is not. This is the case in models with new particles carrying baryon number which are light enough to be stable themselves, but heavy enough so that proton decay is kinematically blocked...
In this work, we study the neutrino mixing sum rules arising from discrete symmetries and the class of Littlest Seesaw (LS) neutrino models. These symmetry-based approaches all offer predictions for the cosine of the leptonic CP phase
In this paper, we study analytical approximate solutions for second-order homogeneous differential equations with the existence of only two turning points (but without poles) by using the uniform asymptotic approximation (UAA) method. To be more conc...
A review of the basic Hansen’s ideal frame algorithms for accurate numerical integration of perturbed elliptic motion is carried out. The fundamental approaches rely on the use of nonsingular variables and differ in the ways in which the ellips...
The unimodular theory of gravity is an alternative perspective to the traditional general relativity of Einstein and opens new possibilities for exploring its implications in cosmology. In this paper, we investigated Unimodular Gravity (UG) with the...
Compared with the international meteor surveillance systems, the ground wide angle camera (GWAC) system exhibits characteristics such as images with the resolution of 4K × 4K and single-site observation. These characteristics present challenges...
The recently obtained special Buchdahl-inspired metric Phys. Rev. D 107, 104008 (2023) describes asymptotically flat spacetimes in pure Ricci-squared gravity. The metric depends on a new (Buchdahl) parameter
Impulsive solar energetic-particle (SEP) events were first distinguished as the streaming electrons that produce type III radio bursts as distinct from shock-induced type II bursts. They were then observed as the surprisingly enhanced 3He-rich SEP ev...
We study the properties of evolving wormholes able to exist in a closed Friedmann dust-filled universe and described by a particular branch of the well-known Lemaître–Tolman–Bondi solution to the Einstein equations and its generaliz...
Core-collapse supernovae (SNe) are one of the most powerful cosmic sources of neutrinos, with energies of several MeV. The emission of neutrinos and antineutrinos of all flavors carries away the gravitational binding energy of the compact remnant and...
The transiting planet K2-18 b is one of the best candidates for a relatively nearby world harboring biological life. The long-term orbital evolution of this planet is investigated using theoretical and purely numerical techniques for two possible con...
In search of physics beyond the standard model, new phenomena can be relevant in low energies. In view of the Standard Model Extension is an effective field theory, in this study we explore the fermionic sector by showing that the properties of nonre...
China has successfully carried out five lunar exploration missions since 2007. These missions indicate that China has successfully implemented a three-step lunar exploration program of “orbiting, landing, and returning”. Among them, the L...
The compatibility between the de Sitter Swampland conjecture and Hořava–Lifshitz
This paper analyzes the rapid rendezvous trajectory of a spacecraft equipped with an advanced solar electric propulsion system towards asteroid 4660 Nereus. In this context, a set of possible minimum-time orbit-to-orbit transfer trajectories is calcu...
The vanishing phase space generator of the full four-dimensional diffeomorphism-related symmetry group in the context of the Barbero–Immirz–Holst Lagrangian is derived directly, for the first time, from Noether’s second theorem. Its...
In order to derive sodium abundances and investigate the effects of non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) on the formation of H-band Na I lines, we update the sodium atomic model by incorporating collision rates with hydrogen from new quantum-me...
