Apparent horizon and gravitational thermodynamics of the Universe: Solutions to the temperature and entropy confusions, and extensions to modified gravity
David Wenjie Tian, Ivan Booth
The thermodynamics of the Universe is restudied by requiring its compatibility with the holographic-style gravitational equations which govern the dynamics of both the cosmological…
Friedmann equations from nonequilibrium thermodynamics of the Universe: A unified formulation for modified gravity
David Wenjie Tian, Ivan Booth
Inspired by the Wald-Kodama entropy where is the horizon area and is the effective gravitational coupling strength in modified gravity…
Closest Safe Approach to an Accreting Black Hole
Benjamin K. Tippett, Ivan Booth
We examine the causal and geometric horizons of dynamical black holes in Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi collapsing dust spacetimes. Marginally trapped tubes in these spacetimes may be space…
Lessons from gravity: Smooth Gauss-Bonnet limit, energy-momentum conservation and nonminimal coupling
David Wenjie Tian, Ivan Booth
This paper studies a generic fourth-order theory of gravity with Lagrangian density . By considering explicit dependence and imposing the "co…
