DOI: 10.1002/asna.70010
Abstract: We explore gravity, a classical extension of general relativity, and evaluate its applicability to compact stars. As a modification of Einstein's theory, gravity serves as a useful framework for investigating gravitational effects in ultra‐relativistic regimes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/jhep02(2025)019
Abstract: Worldline quantum field theory (WQFT) has proven itself a powerful tool for classical two-body scattering calculations in general relativity. In this paper we develop a new worldline action involving bosonic oscillators, which enables the use… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10509-017-3179-8
Abstract: Rotation curves of spiral galaxies reveal a physical phenomenon that has been seen to lack a satisfactory scientific explanation: velocities of stars far from the nucleus are high and approximately constant. In the context of… read more here.

Abstract: Recent work on the hole argument in general relativity by Weatherall (Br J Philos Sci 69(2):329–350, 2018 ) has drawn attention to the neglected concept of (mathematical) models’ representational capacities. I argue for several theses… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10714-016-2182-7
Abstract: We analyse configurations of neutron stars in the so-called R-squared gravity in the Palatini formalism. Using a realistic equation of state we show that the mass–radius configurations are lighter than their counterparts in General Relativity.… read more here.

Abstract: It is known that two Reissner–Nordstrom black holes or two overextreme Reissner–Nordstrom sources cannot be in physical equilibrium. In the static case such equilibrium is possible only if one of the sources is a black… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10714-019-2618-y
Abstract: Cosmological observations allow the possibility that dark energy is caused by phantom fields. These fields typically lead to the occurrence of singularities in the late Universe. We review here the status of phantom singularities and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10714-019-2619-x
Abstract: We present a gravitational field theory that implements Hořava's proposal of foliation-preserving-diffeomorphisms symmetry and higher spatial curvature directly in the canonical formalism. Due to the higher spatial derivative the theory is potentially renormalizable. Since this… read more here.
