Book Synopsis ChernâSimons (Super)Gravity by : Mokhtar Hassaine
Download or read book ChernâSimons (Super)Gravity written by Mokhtar Hassaine and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2016-01-07 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book grew out of a set of lecture notes on gravitational Chern–Simons (CS) theories developed over the past decade for several schools and different audiences including graduate students and researchers. CS theories are gauge-invariant theories that can include gravity consistently. They are only defined in odd dimensions and represent a very special class of theories in the Lovelock family. Lovelock gravitation theories are the natural extensions of General Relativity for dimensions greater than four that yield second-order field equations for the metric. These theories also admit local supersymmetric extensions where supersymmetry is an off-shell symmetry of the action, as in a standard gauge theory. Apart from the arguments of mathematical elegance and beauty, the gravitational CS actions are exceptionally endowed with physical attributes that suggest the viability of a quantum interpretation. CS theories are gauge-invariant, scale-invariant and background independent; they have no dimensional coupling constants. All constants in the Lagrangian are fixed rational coefficients that cannot be adjusted without destroying gauge invariance. This exceptional status of CS systems makes them classically interesting to study, and quantum mechanically intriguing and promising.

Book Synopsis Black Holes and Super Gravity by : IntroBooks
Download or read book Black Holes and Super Gravity written by IntroBooks and published by IntroBooks. This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black holes, supernovas, Dark matter, and the micro gravity or macro gravity related researches and studies for analysis can be of inbound curiosity to any professional in any subject stream. These are lessons about nature that is sure to trigger the curiosity in anyone. Shedding some light on these vitalities related to black holes, formation, creation, and deterioration is the objective here. Enormous amount of gases in the black holes, in varied capacities, and the unpredictable size and nature of the black holes, with super gravity, make the studies to be too complicated to understand precisely about the physical properties of the black holes. To describe the difference between gravitational and inertial mass, brings in the need to know on when an astronaut in orbit experiences apparent weightlessness. That is the way to understand on how black holes are formed for anyone else too.
Book Synopsis Black Holes in String Theory by : Andrea Puhm
Download or read book Black Holes in String Theory written by Andrea Puhm and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this Thesis, we study black holes and their microscopic properties in extensions of General Relativity that arise as low-energy limits of String Theory. The first question we want to address is how information is released from black holes during evaporation. We make use of quantum information techniques and study information release from qubit systems. We then introduce a general framework to capture the Hawking evaporation process and deduce the constraints unitarity puts on the evolution. This makes the statement of information loss in black hole evaporation more precise and supports the claim that the horizon has to be replaced by a structure, or \emph{fuzzball}, that carries information about the black hole microstates. This immediately raises the question of what this horizon-scale structure is? We address this question in the context of Supergravity. We systematically construct a family of microstates of near-extremal black holes, by placing metastable supertubes inside certain scaling supersymmetric smooth microstate geometries. These non-extremal fuzzballs differ from the classical black hole solution macroscopically at the horizon scale, and for certain probes the fluctuations between various fuzzballs will be visible as thermal noise far away from the horizon. If the black hole horizon is replaced by a horizon-scale structure one can ask what the experience of an observer falling into such a structure is? A recent, much debated, Gedankenexperiment suggests that an infalling observer will burn at a firewall at the horizon. We rephrase this Gedankenexperiment in the decoherence picture of quantum mechanics and ask about the fate of an infalling wave packet. While wave packets of the size of outgoing Hawking quanta can indeed not freely fall through the horizon-scale structure there is a possibility that the experience of macroscopic infalling observers that strongly interact with the structure can have an alternate description of free fall through the horizon of a black hole. We discuss this recently proposed picture of fuzzball complementarity in detail and test it using our newly constructed near-extremal microstates. A key feature of supersymmetric multi-center solutions, used to construct these near-extremal microstates, is that when brane probes are placed in this background in a supersymmetric way they capture the same information as the fully backreacted Supergravity solution. We investigate whether this non-renormalization property also holds for extremal `almost-BPS' solutions where supersymmetry is broken in a controllable way. We find that despite the lack of supersymmetry, the probe action reproduces exactly the equations underlying the fully back-reacted solution indicating that these equations also do not receive quantum corrections.

Book Synopsis Gravity: from Falling Apples to Supermassive Black Holes by : Nicholas Mee
Download or read book Gravity: from Falling Apples to Supermassive Black Holes written by Nicholas Mee and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Includes exciting recent advances in studying gravity and its cosmic manifestations.' Lord Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal, former President of the Royal Society A fascinating historical account of how we have reached our current understanding of gravity. There have been sensational developments in gravitational physics in recent years. The detection of gravitational waves - ripples in the fabric of space - has opened a new window on the universe. These waves are produced by the most cataclysmic events in the universe - the collisions and mergers of black holes and neutron stars. There have also been great strides in our understanding of supermassive black holes. We now know that a black hole with a gargantuan mass lies at the heart of every galaxy, and we even have an image of one such beast. Gravity: From Falling Apples to Supermassive Black Holes provides an engaging and accessible account of how we have reached our current understanding of gravity and places these amazing discoveries in their true context. Gravity: From Falling Apples to Supermassive Black Holes is written in a captivating historical style with stories about the researchers of the past and present that illuminate many key ideas in astronomy and physics. The historical material leads from discussions of the early cosmologies to the great breakthroughs of Tycho and Kepler. We then consider Galileo's contributions to astronomy and mechanics, and the significance of Jeremiah Horrocks's ideas to the Newtonian revolution that would follow. Newton's theories brought about a new scientific age and his description of gravity was unrivalled for over two centuries until it was superseded by Einstein's description in terms of curved spacetime. The outlandish predictions of Einstein's theory have been confirmed again and again, including black holes and gravitational waves. Finally, we move on to more speculative ideas including Hawking radiation and primordial black holes and attempts to find a quantum theory of gravity.
