  • Planetary Habitability in Binary Systems
    Ákos Bazsó / Elke Pilat-Lohinger / Siegfried Eggl
     Astrophysical research has led to the detection of thousands of planets outside the Solar System. About one-tenth of the extrasolar planets discovered so far reside in binary- or multi-stellar systems, and some of the closest known rocky exoplanets populate these multiple-star systems. While such environments seem good places to look for a second Earth, can Earth-like planets ...

  • Delta N Formalism in Cosmological Perturbation Theory
    Ali Akbar Abolhasani / Atsushi Naruko / Hassan Firouzjahi
    Early Universe cosmology is an active area of research and cosmic inflation is a pillar of modern cosmology. Among predictions of inflation, observationally the most important one is the generation of cosmological perturbations from quantum vacuum fluctuations that source all inhomogeneous structures in the Universe, not to mention the large-scale structures such as clusters of...

  • Michelson-Morley Experiments
    Alessandro Pluchino / Maurizio Consoli
    In 1887, Michelson and Morley tried to observe in laboratory the "ether drift" by measuring a small difference in the velocity of two perpendicular light beams. The result of their measurements, however, was much smaller than the classical prediction and interpreted as a "null result". This was crucial to stimulate the first pioneering formulations of relativity and, as such, i...

  • Metamaterial Multiverse
    Igor I Smolyaninov
    Many physical properties of our universe, such as the relative strength of the fundamental interactions, the value of the cosmological constant, etc., appear to be fine-tuned for existence of human life. One possible explanation of this fine tuning assumes existence of a multiverse, which consists of a very large number of individual universes having different physical properti...
