Footprinting in a course on energy
Seth A. Major
Footprints provide a way to estimate the relative impact of processes and products on the global climate. Including footprint analysis in a course on energy simultaneously provides…
On energy for accelerating observers in black hole spacetimes
Seth A. Major
Quasi-local energies for constantly accelerating observers in Bañados, Teitelboim, and Zanelli (BTZ), Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetimes are derived. The energies…
Quantum volume and length fluctuations in a midi-superspace model of Minkowski space
Jeremy Adelman, Franz Hinterleitner, Seth Major
In a (1+1)-dimensional midi-superspace model for gravitational plane waves, a flat space-time condition is imposed with constraints derived from null Killing vectors. Solutions to…
Loop Quantum Gravity Phenomenology: Linking Loops to Observational Physics
Florian Girelli, Franz Hinterleitner, Seth A. Major
Research during the last decade demonstrates that effects originating on the Planck scale are currently being tested in multiple observational contexts. In this review we discuss q…
Quantum Geometry Phenomenology: Angle and Semiclassical States
Seth A. Major
The phenomenology for the deep spatial geometry of loop quantum gravity is discussed. In the context of a simple model of an atom of space, it is shown how purely combinatorial str…
Towards Loop Quantization of Plane Gravitational Waves
Franz Hinterleitner, Seth Major
The polarized Gowdy model in terms of Ashtekar-Barbero variables is further reduced by including the Killing equations for plane-fronted parallel gravitational waves with parallel…
