Inflationary Slow-Roll Parameters in the Jordan Frame for Cosmological F(R) Gravity Models
$F(R)$ inflationary models are analyzed without the Weyl transformation to the Einstein frame. Sufficient conditions for existence of global inflationary attractors in $F(R)$ models are provided. Following that, the procedure for calculating inflationary observables completely in the original, Jordan, frame is given. The described procedure is used to analyze a new $F(R)$ inflationary model (a one-parameter deformation of the Starobinsky model), which is shown to provide predictions in good agr…

Pulled fronts are not (just) pulled
Front propagation into unstable states is often determined by the linearization, that is, propagation speeds agree with predictions from the linearized equation at the unstable state. The leading edge behavior is then a Gaussian tail propagating with the linear spreading speed. Fronts following this leading edge are commonly referred to as pulled fronts, alluding to the idea that they are ``pulled'' by this leading-edge Gaussian tail. We describe here a class of examples that exhibits how these…

Ultrathin bismuth-yttrium iron garnet films with tunable and compensated magnetic anisotropy
We report on the epitaxial growth of nm-thick films of bismuth-substituted yttrium iron garnet (BiYIG) by high-temperature off-axis radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. We demonstrate accurate control of the magnetic properties by tuning of the sputtering parameters and epitaxial strain on various (111)-oriented garnet substrates. BiYIG films with up to -0.80\% lattice mismatch with the substrate remain fully strained up to 60~nm-thick, maintaining a high crystalline quality. Transmission elec…
