Color me confused - I do not know what is the proper condiment to use when serving fried air.
I tried luminiferous aether, but that didn't really do much. Maybe I'll get a bottle of phlogiston.

Extension of the Einstein-Dirac-axion-aether theory based on an effective metric with a spinor kernel
We consider an axionic extension of the Einstein-Dirac-aether theory, which is based on the spinor modification of the kinetic term of the pseudoscalar field and describes the backreaction of the spinor field on the axionic dark matter. The main instrument of this extension is the effective metric constructed using the aether velocity four-vector and a kernel, which depends on the basic spinor scalar and on the square of the basic spinor pseudoscalar. The periodic potential of the axion field i…

Finite temperature Casimir effect of a Lorentz-violating scalar with higher order derivatives
In this work I study the finite temperature Casimir effect caused by a complex and massive scalar field that breaks Lorentz invariance in a CPT-even, aether-like manner. The Lorentz invariance breaking is caused by a constant space-like vector directly coupled to higher order field derivatives. This vector needs to be space-like in order to avoid non-causality problems that will arise with a time-like vector. I investigate the two scenarios of the scalar field satisfying either Dirichlet or mix…

Compact binary systems in Einstein-Æther gravity. II. Radiation reaction to 2.5 post-Newtonian order
We obtain the equations of motion for compact binary systems (black holes or neutron stars) in an alternative theory of gravity known as Einstein-AEther theory, which supplements the standard spacetime metric with a timelike four-vector (the AEther field) that is constrained to have unit norm. The equations make use of solutions obtained in Paper I for the gravitational and AEther field potentials within the near zone of the system, evaluated to 2.5 post-Newtonian (PN) order ($O(v/c)^5$ beyond …
