Angular momentum loss in gravitational scattering, radiation reaction, and the Bondi gauge ambiguity

Gabriele Veneziano, Gregory A. Vilkovisky

Recently, Damour computed the radiation reaction on gravitational scattering as the (linear) response to the angular momentum loss which he found to be of in the gr…

Covariant Perturbation Theory (IV). Third Order in the Curvature

A. O. Barvinsky, Yu. V. Gusev, V. V. Zhytnikov +1

The trace of the heat kernel and the one-loop effective action for the generic differential operator are calculated to third order in the background curvatures: the Riemann curvatu…

Post-radiation evolution of black holes

G. A. Vilkovisky

The expectation-value equations for the collapse of a macroscopic, spherically symmetric, and uncharged body are integrated up to the limit of validity of semiclassical theory. The…

Expectation values and vacuum currents of quantum fields

G. A. Vilkovisky

Theory of expectation values is presented as an alternative to S-matrix theory for quantum fields. This change of emphasis is conditioned by a transition from the accelerator physi…

Backreaction of the Hawking radiation

G. A. Vilkovisky

Black holes create a vacuum matter charge to protect themselves from the quantum evaporation. A spherically symmetric black hole having initially no matter charges radiates away ab…

Radiation equations for black holes

G. A. Vilkovisky

It has been shown in the previous paper that the metric in the semiclassical region of the collapse spacetime is expressed purely kinematically through the Bondi charges. Here the…
