The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) power spectrum derived from the first year WMAP data demonstrates an intriguing lack of power at large scales that cannot be accounted for within the framework of the standard cosmological model. We explore the possibility that this anomaly could be explained by waiving the implicit assumption of a simply connected topology, rather than modifying the physic...

In this work the electromagnetic radius and the polarizability of the mesons are obtained by use of the effective Lagrangians constructed on the one hand with taking into account of general principles of the relativistic quantum field theory and on the other hand with taking into account of the compound relativistic model meson representation. Also using a relativistic constituent quark model b...

Background. A field study conducted by researchers found the balls used by visual impairment students at school basically used the sound by a small bell inside the ball. However, the sound emitted from the ball is very limited, the ball will sound when it is moved. This makes it difficult for students with visual impairments to find a missing ball that not emitted makes a sound. Objectives. A ...

Fredkin’s Billiard Ball Model (BBM) is considered one of the fundamental models of collision-based computing, and it is essentially based on elastic collisions of mobile billiard balls. Moreover, fixed mirrors or reflectors are brought into the model to deflect balls to complete the computation. However, the use of fixed mirrors is “physically unrealistic” and makes the BBM not perfectly moment...

Finite entropy thermal systems undergo Poincaré recurrences. In the context of field theory, this implies that at finite temperature, timelike two-point functions will be quasi-periodic. In this note we attempt to reproduce this behavior using the AdS/CFT correspondence by studying the correlator of a massive scalar field in the bulk. We evaluate the correlator by summing over all the SL(2, Z) ...

We briefly describe the importance of division algebras and Poincaré conjecture in both mathematical and physical scenarios. Mathematically, we argue that using the torsion concept one can combine the formalisms of division algebras and Poincaré conjecture. Physically, we show that both formalisms may be the underlying mathematical tools in special relativity and cosmology. Moreover, we explore...

We discuss a model of gravity with conformal symmetry appearing in the simplest extension General Relativity Poincar\'e algebra terms. The nonlinear realization causes existence five scalar fields. Therefore it looks desirable to use them for driving inflation at earliest stages Universe evolution. It is shown that evolution scale factor doesn't imply accelerated expansion so there are no infla...
