It is a general belief that the existence of an initial singularity can be remove through the employment of a quantum theory of gravity. However, there is no consistent theory of gravity until now, and in this sense the problem of the initial singularity remains of actuality. It is well known that is possible to construct a quantum model for the universe as a whole, through the Wheeler-DeWitt (...

The angular power spectra of cosmic microwave background are analyzed under the light of the evolutional scenario of the universe based on the renormalizable quantum theory of gravity in four dimensions. The equation of evolution is solved numerically fixing the power law spectrum predicted by the conformal gravity for the initial condition. The equation requires to introduce a dynamical energy...

Gravity is electrostatic. This paper substantiates this claim by deriving, through basic electrostatic relationships, a simple equation for gravity forces that includes an expression for the gravity constant G in terms of electrostatic parameters. Applied to interaction between two separated sub-atomic particles in open space, the derivation of G results in a value that falls within the range o...

detection of subsurface structures by means of gravity method can be used to determine mass distribution and density contrast of rock units. this distribution could be detected by different geophysical methods, especially gravity method. however, gravity techniques have some drawbacks and can't be always successful in distinguishing subsurface structures. performance of the gravity technique co...

Long's equation describes two dimensional stratified flow over terrain. Its numerical solutions under various approximations were investigated by many authors under the assumption that the base flow field is without shear. Special attention was paid to the properties of the gravity waves that are predicted to be generated as a result. In this paper we address, analytically, the nature and prope...

In this paper, we study Raychaudhuri's equation in the background of R + βR 2 gravity with a phenomenological matter (ρ ∝ a(t) −n). We conclude that even though the Strong Energy Condition (S.E.C.) for Einstein's gravity, which guarantees singularity, is n ≥ 2 for ρ ∝ a(t) −n , a perturbative analysis of Raychaudhuri's equation in the background of R+βR 2 gravity reveals that the big bang singu...

We study five-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled covariantly to 3-brane with induced gravity on the brane, and consider warped D=4 de Sitter background field solution on the brane. Following background field method we obtain the field equation described by the Lagrangean terms bilinear in quantized gravitational field. In such a free field approximation on curved background we calculate expli...

Based on the analysis of two dimensional dilaton gravity we argue that the semiclassical equations of black hole formation and evaporation should not be interpreted in terms of expectation values of operators in the exact quantum theory, but rather as WKB trajectories. Thus at the semiclassical level it does not seem possible to formulate a notion of quantum mechanical information loss. The dev...
