On the Vacua of General Relativity in the Backdrop of the Higgs VEV
Rafael Angel Araya-Gochez
The classical notion of manifold may be augmented to institute the algebras associated with the generators of the spinor and vector representations of the Lorentz group on two copi…
Baby Steps in Quantum Ring Theory: towards a background independent framework for Quantum Gravity
Rafael A. Araya-Gochez
We investigate gravity as a gauge theory in the language of fiber bundles with tools from algebraic geometry. Compelled by the construction of the Eilenberg-MacLane classifying spa…
On the Geometry of Spacetime I: baby steps in quantum ring theory
Rafael A. Araya-Gochez
Vierbeins provide a bridge between the curved space of general relativity and the flat tangent space of special relativity. Both spaces should be causal and spin. We posit intertwi…
Gravitational Waves from Hyper-Accretion onto Nascent Black Holes
Rafael Angel Araya-Gochez
We examine the possibility that hyper-accretion onto newly born, black holes occurs in highly intermittent, non-asymmetric fashion favorable to gravitational wave emission in a neu…
Radiative Heat Conduction and the Magnetorotational Instability
Rafael A. Araya-Gochez, Ethan Vishniac
A photon or neutrino gas--semi-contained by a baryonic species through scattering--comprises a rather peculiar MHD fluid where the magnetic field is truly frozen only to the co-mov…
Hydromagnetic Stability of a Slim Disk in a Stationary Geometry
Rafael Angel Araya-Gochez
The magnetorotational instability originates from the elastic coupling of fluid elements in orbit around a gravitational well. Since inertial accelerations play a fundamental dynam…
