A Solution of the Cosmological Constant, Using Multiverse Version of Penrose CCC Cosmology, and Klauder Enhanced Quantization for Obtaining a Cosmological Constant Compared
This study compares a multiverse generalization of CCC Penrose cosmology with my work on Klauder enhanced quantization and the cosmological constant problem. While it is not linked to tokamaks, it is still interesting to contemplate.
