Observational Opportunities for the Fuzzball Program
Daniel R. Mayerson, Bert Vercnocke
We discuss how string theory, and in particular the "fuzzball" paradigm, has already made and can make meaningful contributions to the phenomenology of strong gravity observations.…
Modave Lectures on Horizon-Size Microstructure, Fuzzballs and Observations
Daniel R. Mayerson
These lecture notes discuss various aspects of the fuzzball paradigm, microstate geometries, and their role in gravitational phenomenology. We briefly introduce the information par…
Gravitational Footprints of Black Holes and Their Microstate Geometries
Ibrahima Bah, Iosif Bena, Pierre Heidmann +2
We construct a family of non-supersymmetric extremal black holes and their horizonless microstate geometries in four dimensions. The black holes can have finite angular momentum an…
Fuzzball Shadows: Emergent Horizons from Microstructure
Fabio Bacchini, Daniel R. Mayerson, Bart Ripperda +4
We study the physical properties of four-dimensional, string-theoretical, horizonless "fuzzball" geometries by imaging their shadows. Their microstructure traps light rays straying…
Fuzzballs and Observations
Daniel R. Mayerson
The advent of gravitational waves and black hole imaging has opened a new window into probing the horizon scale of black holes. An important question is whether string theory resul…
Counting D1-D5-P Microstates in Supergravity
Daniel R. Mayerson, Masaki Shigemori
We quantize the D1-D5-P microstate geometries known as superstrata directly in supergravity. We use Rychkov's consistency condition [hep-th/0512053] which was derived for the D1-D5…
