A Note on Asymmetric Thick Branes by D. Bazeia, R. Menezes, R. da Rocha

“…We study in addition the nonpolynomial sine-Gordon like model, also constructed with the inclusion of a constant in the standard superpotential, and we investigate gravitational stability of the asymmetric brane. The results suggest robustness of the new braneworld scenarios and add further possibilities of the construction of asymmetric branes.…”

Structure of massive gauge/gravity scattering amplitudes, equivalence theorems, and extended double-copy with compactified warped space by Yanfeng Hang, Wei-Wei Zhao, Hong-Jian He, Yin-Long Qiu

“…We present systematic formulations of the gauge theory equivalence theorem (GAET) and the gravitational equivalence theorem (GRET) for warped KK theories in R ξ gauge, where the GAET connects the scattering amplitudes of longitudinal KK gauge bosons to that of the corresponding KK Goldstone bosons and the GRET connects the scattering amplitudes of KK gravitons of helicity-zero (helicity-one) to that of the corresponding gravitational scalar (vector) KK Goldstone bosons. …”

On destabilising quasi-normal modes with a radially concentrated perturbation by Valentin Boyanov

“…The model is that of a small bump perturbation to the effective potential of linear axial gravitational waves on a Schwarzschild background, and our focus is on three different aspects of the instability: identifying and distinguishing between the two different types of instabilities studied previously in the literature, quantifying the size of the perturbations applied to the system and testing the validity of the pseudospectral numerical method in providing a convergent result for this measure, and finally, relating the size and other features of the perturbation to the degree of destabilisation of the spectrum.…”

Analysis of the Conformally Flat Approximation for Binary Neutron Star Initial Conditions by In-Saeng Suh, Grant J. Mathews, J. Reese Haywood, N. Q. Lan

“…We illustrate the use of this approximation for orbiting neutron stars in the quasicircular orbit approximation to demonstrate the equation of state dependence of these initial conditions and how they might affect the emergent gravitational wave frequency as the stars approach the innermost stable circular orbit.…”

Nongravitational Forces in Planetary Systems by David Jewitt

“…In exoplanetary systems and debris disks, nongravitational forces affect the lifetimes of circumstellar particles and feed refractory debris to the photospheres of the central stars. Unlike the gravitational force, which is a simple function of the well-known separations and masses of bodies, the nongravitational forces are frequently functions of poorly known or even unmeasurable physical properties. …”
