The current society can be associated with such terms as information and technology winners, expert systems, and ‘know-how’.

متن کاملInflation from Tsunami-waves

These states are characterized by a nonperturbatively large number of quanta in a band of momenta but with vanishing expectation value of the scalar field. They represent the situation in which initially a non-perturbatively large energy density is localiz...
