Quantum Hotspots: Mean Fields, Open EFTs, Nonlocality and Decoherence Near Black Holes
C. P. Burgess, R. Holman, G. Kaplanek
Effective theories describing black hole exteriors resemble open quantum systems inasmuch as many unmeasurable degrees of freedom beyond the horizon interact with those we can see.…
Qubit Heating Near a Hotspot
G. Kaplanek, C. P. Burgess, R. Holman
Effective theories describing black hole exteriors contain many open-system features due to the large number of gapless degrees of freedom that lie beyond reach across the horizon.…
Influence Through Mixing: Hotspots as Benchmarks for Basic Black-Hole Behaviour
G. Kaplanek, C. P. Burgess, R. Holman
Effective theories are being developed for fields outside black holes, often with an unusual open-system feel due to the influence of large number of degrees of freedom that lie ou…
Does Planck Actually "See" the Bunch-Davies State?
Rose Baunach, Nadia Bolis, R. Holman +2
To what extent can the Planck satellite observations be interpreted as confirmation of the quantum part of the inflationary paradigm? Has it "seen" the Bunch-Davies state? We compa…
