Gravitation, the Quantum, and Bohr’s Correspondence Principle
The black hole combines in some sense both the “hydrogen atom” and the “black-body radiation” problems of quantum gravity. This analogy suggests that black-hole quantization may be the key to a quantum theory of gravity. During the last twenty-five years evidence has been mounting that black-hole surface area is indeed quantized, with uniformally spaced area eigenvalues. There is, however, no g...
متن کاملCorrespondence Principle in Quantum Gravity
The problem of consistent formulation of the correspondence principle in quantum gravity is considered. The usual approach based on the use of the two-particle scattering amplitudes is shown to be in disagreement with the classical result of General Relativity given by the Schwarzschild solution. It is shown also that this approach fails to describe whatever non-Newtonian interactions of macros...
متن کاملGravitation Without the Equivalence Principle
In the general relativistic description of gravitation, geometry replaces the concept of force. This is possible because of the universal character of free fall, and would break down in its absence. On the other hand, the teleparallel version of general relativity is a gauge theory for the translation group and, as such, describes the gravitational interaction by a force similar to the Lorentz ...
متن کاملQuantum Fluctuations of Effective Fields and the Correspondence Principle
The question of Bohr correspondence in quantum field theory is considered from a dynamical point of view. It is shown that the classical description of particle interactions is inapplicable even in the limit of large particles’ masses because of finite quantum fluctuations of the fields produced. In particular, it is found that the relative value of the root mean square fluctuation of the Coulo...
متن کاملHeat and Gravitation: The Action Principle
Some features of hydroand thermo-dynamics, as applied to atmospheres and to stellar structures, are puzzling: (1) the suggestion, first made by Laplace, that our atmosphere has an adiabatic temperature distribution, is confirmed for the lower layers, but the explanation for this is very controversial; (2) the standard treatment of relativistic thermodynamics does not favor a systematic treatmen...
