I describe a new class of quintessence+CDMmodels in which late time scalar field oscillations can give rise to both quintessence and cold dark matter. Additionally, a versatile ansatz for the luminosity distance is used to reconstruct the quintessence equation of state in a model independent manner from observations of high redshift supernovae. 1. A new model of quintessence and cold dark matte...

The accelerating gradient performance of superconducting niobium cavities is rapidly progressing as a result of reduced field emission due to improvement in surface preparation techniques. Beyond the field emission limitation, there exists a fundamental limit imposed by the critical magnetic field of niobium. One way to tackle this limit is to reduce the ratio of the peak magnetic field to the ...

We present a systematic study of accelerating cosmologies obtained from M/string theory compactifications of hyperbolic spaces with time-varying volume. A set of vacuum solutions where the internal space is a product of hyperbolic manifolds is found to give qualitatively the same accelerating four-dimensional FLRW universe behavior as a single hyperbolic space. We also examine the possibility t...

This paper explains the Accelerating Universe, the Special and General Relativity from the observed effects of the accelerating electrons, causing naturally the experienced changes of the electric field potential along the moving electric charges. The accelerating electrons explain not only the Maxwell Equations and the Special Relativity, but the Heisenberg Uncertainty Relation, the wave parti...

Field emission and thermal breakdown are the main mechanisms limiting the accelerating gradient of niobium radio-frequency cavities. Diagnostic tools to study these mechanisms include quality measurements, thermometry, and microscopy. Results presented here demonstrate that micron-size, conducting particles are the source of field emission. Thermal breakdown is caused by a variety of defects su...
