We consider the black hole dynamical evolution in the framework of a Lorentz-violating spacetime endowed with a Schwarzchild-like momentum-dependent metric. Large deviations from the Hawking-Bekenstein predictions are obtained, depending on the values of the Lorentz-violating parameter λ introduced. A nontrivial evolution comes out, following mainly from the existence of a nonvanishing minimum mass: for large Lorentz violations, most of the black hole evaporation takes place in the initial stage, which is then followed by a stationary stage (whose duration depends on the value of λ) where the mass does not change appreciably. Furthermore, for the final stage of evolution, our model predicts a sweet slow death of the black hole, whose "slowness" again depends on λ, in contrast with the violent final explosion predicted by the standard theory.

By publishing three reviews of Bayerische cars, the very cars driven by the world's most obnoxious drivers, you are enabling big assholes to graduate to bigger-asshole status! I was recently in Northern Virginia for a couple of days and had completely forgotten that every other car is a BMW driven by an obnoxious asshole, and they all drive like it's the last lap of the German Grand Prix. I would also think that if the coefficient between the tires and the road did increase, the range would increase due to less tire slippage. - Brian Fergusson White City, SK I've been "Ed." since 2011, and this is the first letter I've seen about the Table of Contents - Ed.

Abstract: We describe a program for computing the abundances of light elements produced during Big Bang Nucleosynthesis which is publicly available at http://parthenope.na.infn.it/. Starting from nuclear statistical equilibrium conditions the program solves the set of coupled ordinary differential equations, follows the departure from chemical equilibrium of nuclear species, and determines their asymptotic abundances as function of several input cosmological parameters as the baryon density, the number of effective neutrino, the value of cosmological constant and the neutrino chemical potential. The program requires commercial NAG library routines.
