Classical mass inflation vs semiclassical inner horizon inflation

Carlos Barceló, Valentin Boyanov, Raúl Carballo-Rubio +1

We analyse the geometry of a spherically symmetric black hole with an inner and outer apparent horizon which is perturbed by spherical null shells of matter. On a classical level w…

Chronology Protection Implementation in Analogue Gravity

Carlos Barceló, Jokin Eguia Sánchez, Gerardo García-Moreno +1

Analogue gravity systems offer many insights into gravitational phenomena, both at the classical and at the semiclassical level. The existence of an underlying Minkowskian structur…

Breaking Buchdahl: ultracompact stars in semiclassical gravity

Julio Arrechea, Carlos Barceló, Raúl Carballo-Rubio +1

The semiclassical approximation takes into account the gravitational contribution of zero-point energies. We model this contribution via the renormalized stress-energy tensor (RSET…

Semiclassical relativistic stars

Julio Arrechea, Carlos Barceló, Raúl Carballo-Rubio +1

We present strong evidence that semiclassical gravity can give place to self-consistent ultracompact stars beyond the Buchdahl limit. We integrate the semiclassical equations of (s…

Toward a mechanism for the emergence of gravity

Carlos Barceló, Raúl Carballo-Rubio, Luis J. Garay +1

One of the main problems that emergent-gravity approaches face is explaining how a system that does not contain gauge symmetries ab initio might develop them effectively in some re…

Vacuum semiclassical gravity does not leave space for safe singularities

Julio Arrechea, Carlos Barceló, Valentin Boyanov +1

General relativity predicts its own demise at singularities, but also appears to conveniently shield itself from the catastrophic consequences of such singularities, making them sa…
