Cover Story: De Sitter black holes and other non-perturbative configurations can be used to probe the holographic degrees of freedom of de Sitter space. For small black holes, evidence was first provided in the seminal work of Banks, Fiol, and Morrise and follow-ups by Banks and Fischler, showing that dS is described by a form of matrix theory. For large black holes, the evidence provided here is new: Gravitational calculations and matrix theory calculations of the rates of exponentially rare fluctuations match one another in surprising detail. The occurrences of Nariai geometry and the “inside-out” transition are particularly interesting examples, and will be explained in this paper. View this paper

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are still a mystery in contemporary astrophysics. Unlike many other astronomical objects whose basic physical mechanism is already identified and the research on which focuses mainly on refining details, FRBs are still largel...

Intense fluxes of electrons from the Earth’s radiation belt (ERB) with energies of tens and hundreds of keV can penetrate to low altitudes at low latitudes outside the South Atlantic Anomaly. This region is known as a forbidden zone of quasi-tr...

Quantum Big Bounce of the Isotropic Universe Using Relational Time

  • Eleonora Giovannetti,
  • Fabio Maione and
  • Giovanni Montani

16 August 2023

We analyze the canonical quantum dynamics of the isotropic Universe with a metric approach by adopting a self-interacting scalar field as relational time. When the potential term is absent, we are able to associate the expanding and collapsing dynami...

Galaxy Rotation Curve Fitting Using Machine Learning Tools

  • Carlos R. Argüelles and
  • Santiago Collazo

16 August 2023

Galaxy rotation curve (RC) fitting is an important technique which allows the placement of constraints on different kinds of dark matter (DM) halo models. In the case of non-phenomenological DM profiles with no analytic expressions, the art of findin...

The origin of an anomalous excess of high-energy (about 100 GeV and higher) positrons in cosmic rays is one of the rare problems in this field, which is proposed to be solved with dark matter (DM). Attempts to solve this problem are faced with the is...
