Grand unification through gravitational effects
Xavier Calmet, Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We systematically study the unification of gauge couplings in the presence of (one or more) effective dimension-5 operators cHGG/4MPl, induced into the grand unified theory by grav…
Monsters, black holes and the statistical mechanics of gravity
Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We review the construction of monsters in classical general relativity. Monsters have finite ADM mass and surface area, but potentially unbounded entropy. From the curved space per…
Black holes, information and decoherence
Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb
We investigate the experimental capabilities required to test whether black holes destroy information. We show that an experiment capable of illuminating the information puzzle mus…
Dark radiation as a signature of dark energy
Sourish Dutta, Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb +1
We propose a simple dark energy model with the following properties: the model predicts a late-time dark radiation component that is not ruled out by current observational data, bu…
Running of Newton's Constant and Quantum Gravitational Effects
David Reeb
Newton's gravitational constant is shown to be a running coupling constant, much like the familiar running gauge couplings of the Standard Model. This implies that, in models with…
