Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of the universe and spontaneous symmetry breaking

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the presence of a phase transition early in the history of the universe, associated with spontaneous symmetry breaking (believed to take place at very high temperatures at which the various fundamental interactions unify), significantly modifies its dynamics and evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exact vacuum solution to conformal Weyl gravity and galactic rotation curves

TL;DR: In this paper, the exact exterior solution for a static, spherically symmetric source in locally conformal invariant Weyl gravity is presented, which includes the familiar exterior Schwarzschild solution as a special case and contains an extra gravitational potential term which grows linearly with distance.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Axisymmetric Pulsar Magnetosphere

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of the axisymmetric force-free magnetosphere of an aligned rotating magnetic dipole has been studied for the case that there exists a sufficiently large charge density to satisfy the ideal MHD condition, E B = 0, everywhere.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fermi Gamma-Ray Imaging of a Radio Galaxy

A. A. Abdo, +203 more
- 07 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: These measurements provide gamma-ray constraints on the magnetic field and particle energy content in radio galaxy lobes, as well as a promising method to probe the cosmic relic photon fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Lag, Wide-Pulse Gamma-Ray Bursts

TL;DR: In this paper, the temporal and spectral behavior of wide pulses in 24 long-lag bursts from the BATSE sample, using a pulse model with two shape parameters - width and asymmetry - and the Band spectral model with three shape parameters.
