In a seeming counter-point to the Sokal Affair, a pair of brothers (Igor and Grichka Bogdanov), managed to get several papers published to physics journals which, upon closer inspection, seem to be full of similar (to Sokal) pseudoscience under a layer of dense technical jargon. The brothers have since defended their theories (which deal with the area of Topological field theory), but the veracity of their work remains in doubt.
