Cover Story: Scientists demand dynamical models in which the parameters fitted to data are constants as otherwise, the models cannot make concrete predictions. In cosmology, recent tensions between datasets force us to revisit the assumption of constant cosmological parameters. Our work identifies simplified settings where the standard model is likely to exhibit time-dependent parameters and illustrates observations where the parameters are no longer constant. The key implication is that the standard model is broken. Our work documents the inevitable endgame for tensions in the current standard model of the universe provided that experimental errors are not the cause of the tensions. View this paper

The fundamental plane of black hole activity is a very important tool to study accretion and jets. However, we found that the SEDs of AGNs and XRBs are different in the 2–10 keV energy band, and it seems inappropriate to use 2–10 keV X-ra...

The spin-torsion theory is a gauge theory approach to gravity that expands upon Einstein’s general relativity (GR) by incorporating the spin of microparticles. In this study, we further develop the spin-torsion theory to examine spherically sym...

In this article, we estimate the gravitational deflection angles of light in the spacetime of Einstein–Cartan wormholes supported by normal matter or phantom energy utilizing the Gauss–Bonnet theorem. The obtained deflection angles are ex...

Low fluxes of astrophysical neutrinos at TeV energies, and the overwhelming background of atmospheric neutrinos below that, render the current paradigm of neutrino astronomy a severely statistics-limited one. While many hints have emerged, all the ev...
