Testing ER = EPR with Hydrogen
Irfan Javed, Edward Wilson-Ewing
According to the ER = EPR conjecture, entangled particles are connected by quantum wormholes. Under the assumption that some of the electric field surrounding an entangled charged…
Anomaly in canonical semiclassical gravity
Viqar Husain, Irfan Javed
We show that the canonical formulation of the semiclassical Einstein equation, where the matter terms in the constraints are replaced by expectation values of the corresponding ope…
Particle production in a bouncing universe
Mustafa Saeed, Irfan Javed, Aiman Nauman
In massless scalar field cosmology, imposing the universe's physical volume as fundamentally discrete resolves the big bang singularity via a big bounce. We use quantum field theor…
Regular black holes and boson stars in semiclassical gravity
Irfan Javed, Viqar Husain
We use a Hamiltonian version of the semiclassical Einstein equation to study classical gravity coupled to a quantum scalar field with potential in spherical symmetry. The system is…
