We investigate the shadow cast by a regular black hole in scalar-tensor-vector modified
gravity theory. This black hole differs from a Schwarzschild-Kerr black hole by the …

Canonically,classic'tests of general relativity (GR) include perihelion precession, the
bending of light around stars, and gravitational redshift;modern'tests have to do with, inter …

A common adage runs that, given a theory manifesting symmetries, the syntax of that theory
should be modified in order to construct a new theory, from which symmetry-variant structure …

The paper re-examines the principal methodological questions, arising in the debate over
the cosmological standard model's postulate of Dark Matter vs. rivalling proposals that …

According to the standard model of cosmology, Λ Λ CDM, the mass-energy budget of the
current stage of the universe is not dominated by the luminous matter that we are familiar …

The (re) introduction of Λ into cosmology has spurred debates that touch on central
questions in philosophy of science, as well as the foundations of general relativity and …

Many areas of frontier physics are confronted with the crisis of a lack of accessible, direct
evidence. As a result, direct model building has failed to lead to any new empirical …

While Λ CDM has emerged as the standard model of cosmology, a small group of physicists
defends modified newtonian dynamics (MOND) as an alternative view on cosmology …

This paper engages with the following closely related questions that have recently received
some attention in the literature:(a) what is the status of the equivalence principle in general …

This paper pushes back against the Democritean-Newtonian tradition of assuming a strict
conceptual dichotomy between spacetime and matter. Our approach proceeds via the more …
