Gravitational Wave Experiments and Early Universe Cosmology
by Michele Maggiore
Publisher: arXiv 2000
Number of pages: 100
Description:
Gravitational-wave experiments with interferometers and with resonant masses can search for stochastic backgrounds of gravitational waves of cosmological origin. We review both experimental and theoretical aspects of the search for these backgrounds.

Special Functions: Fractional Calculus and the Pathway for Entropy
by Hans J. Haubold (ed.) - MDPI AG
The notion of entropy emerged in conceptually very distinct contexts. This book deals with the connection between entropy, probability, and fractional dynamics as they appeared, for example, in solar neutrino astrophysics since the 1970's.

Plasma Physics of Extreme Astrophysical Environments
by Dmitri A. Uzdensky, Shane Rightley - arXiv
In this review, after describing the extreme astrophysical systems of interest and identifying the key relevant plasma-physical problems, we survey the recent progress in the development of QED-based relativistic quantum plasma physics theory.
