On the Quantum Levels of Isolated Spherically Symmetric Gravitational Systems

چکیده

The known canonical quantum theory of a spherically symmetric pure (Schwarzschild) gravitational system describes isolated black holes by plane waves exp(−iMc2τ/h̄) with respect to their continuous masses M and the proper time τ of observers at spatial infinity. On the other hand Bekenstein and Mukhanov postulated discrete mass levels for such black holes in the spirit of the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantisation in atomic physics. The two approaches can be related by postulating periodic boundary conditions in time for the plane waves and by identifying the period ∆ in real time E-Mail: [email protected]

Spherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory

In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...

انقباض گرانشی یک لایه نور گونه با تقارن کروی در نسبیت عام

In this work, the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric null shell with the flat interior and a charged Vaidya exterior spacetimes is studied. There is no gravitational impulsive wave present on the null hypersurface which is shear-free and contracting. It follows that there is a critical radius at which the shell bounces and starts expanding.

Bubbles and Quantum Tunnelling in Inflationary Cosmology

We review a procedure to use semiclassical methods in the quantization of General Relativistic shells and apply these techniques in some simplified models of inflationary cosmology. Some interesting open issues are introduced and the relevance of their solution in the broader context of Quantum Gravity is discussed. The interplay of the gravitational and quantum realms is a fundamental topic in...

Spherically Symmetric Gravitational Collapse

In this paper, we discuss gravitational collapse of spherically symmetric spacetimes. We derive a general formalism by taking two arbitrary spherically symmetric spacetimes with g00 = 1. Israel’s junction conditions are used to develop this formalism. The formulae for extrinsic curvature tensor are obtained. The general form of the surface energy-momentum tensor depending on extrinsic curvature...

un 2 00 6 Quantum Hamiltonian for gravitational collapse

Using a Hamiltonian formulation of the spherically symmetric gravity-scalar field theory adapted to flat spatial slicing, we give a construction of the reduced Hamiltonian operator. This Hamiltonian, together with the null expansion operators presented in an earlier work, form a framework for studying gravitational collapse in quantum gravity. We describe a setting for its numerical implementat...
