Perturbations of Schwarzschild Black Holes in Chern-Simons Modified Gravity
Nicolas Yunes, Carlos F. Sopuerta
We study perturbations of a Schwarzschild black hole in Chern-Simons modified gravity. We begin by showing that Birkhoff's theorem holds for a wide family of Chern-Simons coupling…
Complementarity of Private and Correctable Subsystems in Quantum Cryptography and Error Correction
Dennis Kretschmann, David W. Kribs, Robert W. Spekkens
We make an explicit connection between fundamental notions in quantum cryptography and quantum error correction. Error-correcting subsystems (and subspaces) for quantum channels ar…
Lifetimes of states in 19Ne above the 15 O + alpha breakup threshold
S. Mythili, B. Davids, T. K. Alexander +19
The 15O(alpha,gamma)19Ne reaction plays a role in the ignition of Type I x-ray bursts on accreting neutron stars. The lifetimes of states in 19Ne above the 15O + alpha threshold of…
Detailed Examination of Transport Coefficients in Cubic-Plus-Quartic Oscillator Chains
G. R. Lee-Dadswell, B. G. Nickel, C. G. Gray
We examine the thermal conductivity and bulk viscosity of a one-dimensional (1D) chain of particles with cubic-plus-quartic interparticle potentials and no on-site potentials. This…
Multi-scale analysis of the electromagnetic self-force in a weak gravitational field
Adam Pound, Eric Poisson
We examine the motion of a charged particle in a weak gravitational field. In addition to the Newtonian gravity exerted by a large central body, the particle is subjected to an ele…
Osculating orbits in Schwarzschild spacetime, with an application to extreme mass-ratio inspirals
Adam Pound, Eric Poisson
We present a method to integrate the equations of motion that govern bound, accelerated orbits in Schwarzschild spacetime. At each instant the true worldline is assumed to lie tang…
