Graviton Propagation and Vacuum Polarization in Curved Space
Ross Stanley, Timothy J. Hollowood
The effects of vacuum polarization arising from loops of massive scalar particles on graviton propagation in curved space are considered. Physically, they are due to curvature indu…

The Refractive Index of Curved Spacetime II: QED, Penrose Limits and Black Holes
Timothy J. Hollowood, Graham M. Shore, Ross J. Stanley
This work considers the way that quantum loop effects modify the propagation of light in curved space. The calculation of the refractive index for scalar QED is reviewed and then e…
