Black holes in the classical and quantum world

Roberto Emparan, Elvis Barakovic, Roukaya Dekhil +1

These are the lecture notes for an introductory course on black holes and some aspects of their interaction with the classical and quantum world. The focus is on phenomena of "fund…

Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: a roadmap

Leor Barack, Vitor Cardoso, Samaya Nissanke +203

The grand challenges of contemporary fundamental physics---dark matter, dark energy, vacuum energy, inflation and early universe cosmology, singularities and the hierarchy problem-…

Axial torsion waves in metric-affine gravity

Vedad Pasic, Elvis Barakovic

We construct new explicit vacuum solutions of quadratic metric-affine gravity. The approach of metric-affine gravity in using an independent affine connection produces a theory wit…

Physical interpretation of pp-waves with axial torsion

Elvis Barakovic, Vedad Pasic

We consider generalised pp-waves with purely axial torsion, which we previously showed to be new vacuum solutions of quadratic metric-affine gravity. Our analysis shows that classi…

Torsion Wave Solutions in Yang-Mielke Theory of Gravity

Vedad Pasic, Elvis Barakovic

The approach of metric-affine gravity initially distinguishes it from Einstein's general relativity. Using an independent affine connection produces a theory with 10+64 unknowns. W…

PP-waves with Torsion - a Metric-affine Model for the Massless Neutrino

Vedad Pasic, Elvis Barakovic

In this paper we deal with quadratic metric-affine gravity, which we briefly introduce, explain and give historical and physical reasons for using this particular theory of gravity…
