Interferometry in pulsed fields
Babette Döbrich, Holger Gies
We discuss the particle-physics discovery potential of ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers. With the use of pulsed magnetic fields, current and future gravitational-wav…
Asymptotically free scalar curvature-ghost coupling in Quantum Einstein Gravity
Astrid Eichhorn, Holger Gies, Michael M. Scherer
We consider the asymptotic-safety scenario for quantum gravity which constructs a non-perturbatively renormalisable quantum gravity theory with the help of the functional renormali…
Phase Diagram and Fixed-Point Structure of two dimensional N=1 Wess-Zumino Models
Franziska Synatschke, Holger Gies, Andreas Wipf
We study the phases and fixed-point structure of two-dimensional supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models with one supercharge. Our work is based on the functional renormalization group f…
Interplay between geometry and temperature for inclined Casimir plates
Alexej Weber, Holger Gies
We provide further evidence for the nontrivial interplay between geometry and temperature in the Casimir effect. We investigate the temperature dependence of the Casimir force betw…
Tunneling of the 3rd kind
Holger Gies, Joerg Jaeckel
We study a new kind of tunneling of particles through a barrier particular to quantum field theory. Here, the particles traverse the barrier by splitting into a virtual pair of par…
Momentum signatures for Schwinger pair production in short laser pulses with a sub-cycle structure
Florian Hebenstreit, Reinhard Alkofer, Gerald V. Dunne +1
We investigate electron-positron pair production from vacuum for short laser pulses with sub-cycle structure, in the nonperturbative regime (Schwinger pair production). We use the…
