We show that the Gauss-Bonnet correction to Einstein gravity induces a gravitational tachyon mode, namely an unstable spin 2 fluctuation, in the Randall-Sundrum I model. We demonstrate that this instability is generically related to the presence of a negative tension brane in the set-up, with or without Z2-symmetry across it. Indeed it is shown that the tachyon mode is a bound state localised o...

The metal–molecule interface provides highly attractive fields that interact with each other, such as in charge transfer. However, little is known about the materials localised at the interface. Polarised Raman measurement represents an attractive research field related to metal surfaces. The polarised SERS signal has a highly polarised character because of the anisotropic EM feature on the met...

Abstract Half of the total greenhouse gas emissions and 90% biodiversity loss come from resource extraction processing. (EC 2020). To counter this, we must switch to sustainable, long-lasting products slow down use resources. It is clear that these systems will not be fixed by incremental changes but a series disruptions. This article uses Aristotelian causalities as vehicle break concept “why”...
