Surface patterns in epithelial tissues often arise due to effects of differential surface tension and elastic properties of supporting structures, such as basal membrane and bulk elastic substrate. While we cannot clearly distinguish between surface-tension and elastic contributions only from … Read More

We propose a new regime of minimal QCD axion dark matter that lies between the pre- and post-inflationary scenarios, such that the Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry is restored only on sufficiently large spatial scales. This leads to a novel cosmological evolution, … Read More

Speakers: Miha Modic (National Institute of Chemistry) Successful embryo implantation induces rapid morphological progression from rosette to lumen and then to gastrulation, which is closely coordinated with cell fate transition. By integrating machine learning, metabolic RNA sequencing, iCLIP, and proteomics … Read More

We present an analysis of the first-order supercooled phase transition associated with symmetry breaking in the early Universe in a classically scale-invariant model. We analyze the role of higher order thermal corrections for these transitions, and to what extent they … Read More

The computation of the false vacuum decay rate in the situation with nearly degenerate vacua can be performed analytically in the well known thin wall approximation. If we depart from the near degeneracy of the vacua, the approximation quickly ceases … Read More
