The sounds of science a symphony for many instruments and voices part II
Gerard t Hooft, William D Phillips, Anton Zeilinger +22
Despite its amazing quantitative successes and contributions to revolutionary technologies, physics currently faces many unsolved mysteries ranging from the meaning of quantum mech…
Black Hole Firewalls and Quantum Mechanics
Gerard t Hooft
Firewalls in black holes are easiest to understand by imposing time reversal invariance, together with a unitary evolution law. The best approach seems to be to split up the time s…
Quantum gravity on the black hole horizon
Nava Gaddam, Nico Groenenboom, Gerard 't Hooft
We study scattering on the black hole horizon in a partial wave basis, with an impact parameter of the order of the Schwarzschild radius or less. This resembles the strong gravity…
The firewall transformation for black holes and some of its implications
Gerard t Hooft
A promising strategy for better understanding space and time at the Planck scale, is outlined and further pursued. It is explained in detail, how black hole unitarity demands the e…
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Gravity and Information
Gerard 't Hooft, Steven B. Giddings, Carlo Rovelli +4
Various contenders for a complete theory of quantum gravity are at odds with each other. This is in particular seen in the ways they relate to information and black holes, and how…
Reflections on the renormalization procedure for gauge theories
Gerard t Hooft
Various pieces of insight were needed to formulate the rules for working with gauge theories of the electro-magnetic, weak and strong forces. First, it was needed to understand how…
