We present a unified formulation of the interaction of electrons with the electromagnetic field in heavy ion collisions, based on quantized interacting fields. This reduces the effort in treating many-electron systems substantially, as compared with the usual S-matrix theory. Both formalisms are shown to be equivalent. The simplification achieved by our new approach is demonstrated in detail for the example of quasi-molecular radiation.
Constraints on the Covariant Canonical Gauge Gravity (CCGG) theory from low-redshift cosmology are studied. The formulation extends Einstein’s theory of General Relativity (GR) by a quadratic Riemann–Cartan term in the Lagrangian, controlled by a “deformation” parameter. In the Friedman universe this leads to an additional geometrical stress energy and promotes, due to the necessary presence of torsion, the cosmological constant to a time-dependent function. The MCMC analysis of the combined data sets of Type Ia Supernovae, Cosmic Chronometers and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations yields a fit that is well comparable with the ΛCDM results. The modifications implied in the CCGG approach turn out to be subdominant in the low-redshift cosmology. However, a non-zero spatial curvature and deformation parameter are shown to be consistent with observations.
