Diffeomorphism invariance and the black hole information paradox
Ted Jacobson, Phuc Nguyen
We argue that the resolution to the black hole information paradox lies in a proper accounting of the implications of diffeomorphism invariance for the Hilbert space and observable…
LARES Satellite Thermal Forces and a Test of General Relativity
Richard Matzner, Phuc Nguyen, Jason Brooks +11
We summarize a laser-ranged satellite test of frame-dragging, a prediction of General Relativity, and then concentrate on the estimate of thermal thrust, an important perturbation…
Modelling LARES temperature distribution and thermal drag
Phuc H. Nguyen, Richard Matzner
The LARES satellite, a laser-ranged space experiment to contribute to geophysics observation, and to measure the general relativistic Lense-Thirring effect, has been observed to un…
Analytical families of 2-component anisotropic polytropes and their relativistic extensions
Phuc H. Nguyen, Manasvi Lingam
In this paper, we study a family of two-component anisotropic polytropes which model a wide range of spherically symmetric astrophysical systems such as early-type baryonic galaxie…
Anisotropic Models for Globular Clusters, Galactic Bulges and Dark Halos
P. H. Nguyen, J. F. Pedraza
Spherical systems with polytropic equations of state are of great interest in astrophysics. They are widely used to describe neutron stars, red giants, white dwarfs, brown dwarfs,…
