High resolution foreground cleaned CMB map from WMAP

TL;DR: In this paper, an independent foreground analysis of the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) maps is performed to produce a cleaned cosmic microwave background (CMB) map, which is useful for cross-correlation with, e.g., galaxy and x-ray maps.

Einstein's general theory of relativity

TL;DR: In this paper, Newtonian physics and special Relativity are discussed, including the special theory of Relativity, and the theory of the Schwarzschild solution and Black Holes, as well as the metric junction method and the Kaluza-Klein theory.

Cosmological consequences of MSSM flat directions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the cosmological implications of the flat directions of the minimally supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) and describe how field condensates are created along the flat direction because of inflationary fluctuations.

A 2dvEv- bit distributed algorithm for the directed Euler trail problem

TL;DR: The algorithm can be used as a building block for solving other distributed graph problems, and can be slightly modified to run on a strongly-connected diagraph for generating the existent Euler trail or to report that no Euler trails exist.

Large Mass Hierarchy from a Small Extra Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak scale is generated from the Planck scale through an exponential hierarchy, but this exponential arises not from gauge interactions but from the background metric, which is a slice of spacetime.
