New View on Quantum Gravity and the Origin of the Universe
B. L. Hu
This essay is based on a physics lecture given at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology on May 24, 2006, Hong Kong. It has 5 sections and one page of references and su…
Backreaction and Unruh effect: New insights from exact solutions of uniformly accelerated detectors
Shih-Yuin Lin, B. L. Hu
Using nonperturbative results obtained recently for an uniformly accelerated Unruh-DeWitt detector, we discover new features in the dynamical evolution of the detector's internal d…
New Insights into Uniformly Accelerated Detector in a Quantum Field
Shih-Yuin Lin, B. L. Hu
We obtained an exact solution for a uniformly accelerated Unruh-DeWitt detector interacting with a massless scalar field in (3+1) dimensions which enables us to study the entire ev…
Electromagnetic and gravitational self-force on a relativistic particle from quantum fields in curved space
Chad R. Galley, B. L. Hu, Shih-Yuin Lin
We provide a quantum field theoretical derivation of the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac (ALD) equation, describing the motion of an electric point charge sourcing an electromagnetic field,…
Fluctuations of an evaporating black hole from back reaction of its Hawking radiation: Questioning a premise in earlier work
B. L. Hu, Albert Roura
This paper delineates the first steps in a systematic quantitative study of the spacetime fluctuations induced by quantum fields in an evaporating black hole. We explain how the st…
