Accelerated Particle Detectors with Modified Dispersion Relations
Paul C. W. Davies, Philip Tee
There is increasing interest in discrete or "pixelated" spacetime models as a foundation for a satisfactory theory of quantum gravity. If spacetime possesses a cellular structure,…
Infrared acceleration radiation
Michael R. R. Good, Paul C. W. Davies
We present an exactly soluble electron trajectory that permits an analysis of the soft (deep infrared) radiation emitted, the existence of which has been experimentally observed du…
On the past-completeness of inflationary spacetimes
J. E. Lesnefsky, D. A. Easson, P. C. W. Davies
We discuss the question of whether or not inflationary spacetimes can be geodesically complete in the infinite past. Geodesic completeness is a necessary condition for averting an…
Quantum Non-Barking Dogs
Sara Imari Walker, Paul C. W. Davies, Prasant Samantray +1
Quantum weak measurements with states both pre- and postselected offer a window into a hitherto neglected sector of quantum mechanics. A class of such systems involves time depende…
Time-Dependent Quantum Weak Values: Decay Law for Post-Selected States
P. C. W. Davies
Weak measurements offer new insights into the behavior of quantum systems. Combined with post-selection, quantum mechanics predicts a range of new experimentally testable phenomena…
Constraints on the value of the fine structure constant from gravitational thermodynamics
P. C. W. Davies
In this paper I show how the second law of thermodynamics, generalized to include event horizon area, places interesting constraints on the value of the fine structure constant. A…
