Abstract: A rigid body accelerated through a frictionless fluid appears to gain mass. Swimmers, air bubbles, submarines and airships are slowed down by the associated 'added mass' force which is distinct from viscous drag and buoyancy.… read more here.

Abstract: We discuss $\mathcal{P}\mathcal{T}$-symmetric Abelian gauge field theories as well as their extension to the Englert-Brout-Higgs mechanism for generating a mass for a vector boson. Gauge invariance is not straightforward, and we discuss the different related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.141103
Abstract: Black hole superradiance, which only relies on gravitational interactions, can provide a powerful probe of the existence of ultralight bosons that are weakly coupled to ordinary matter. However, as a boson cloud grows through superradiance,… read more here.
