Extreme mass ratio head-on collisions of black holes in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet theory
Antonia M. Frassino, David C. Lopes, Jorge V. Rocha
The evolution of the event horizon when two black holes merge can be determined by resorting to ray-tracing techniques on a single black hole spacetime, under the assumption that t…
Weak Cosmic Censorship with spinning particles in Kerr-(A)dS spacetimes
Antonia M. Frassino, Jorge V. Rocha, Andrea P. Sanna
We investigate the weak cosmic censorship conjecture by analyzing the dynamics of spinning timelike particles dropped along the rotational axis of an extremal Kerr (anti)de Sitter…
The impact of higher derivative corrections to General Relativity on black hole mergers
João M. Dias, Antonia M. Frassino, David C. Lopes +2
The merging of two black holes is a notoriously difficult process to describe exactly. Nevertheless, the hindrances posed by gravity's nonlinearity can be circumvented by focusing…
White Paper and Roadmap for Quantum Gravity Phenomenology in the Multi-Messenger Era
R. Alves Batista, G. Amelino-Camelia, D. Boncioli +101
The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity has long been elusive. Only recently have empirical predictions of various possible theories of quantum gravity been put…
Entropy Bounds for Rotating AdS Black Holes
Masaya Amo, Antonia M. Frassino, Robie A. Hennigar
We propose novel thermodynamic inequalities that apply to stationary asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes. These inequalities incorporate the thermodynamic volume and re…
Black hole-wormhole collisions and the emergence of islands
João M. Dias, Antonia M. Frassino, Valentin D. Paccoia +1
We use ray-tracing techniques to determine the evolution of the event horizon of a large black hole that ``gobbles'' a tiny, traversable wormhole. This calculation has physical mea…
Quantum signatures in nonlinear gravitational waves
Thiago Guerreiro, Francesco Coradeschi, Antonia Micol Frassino +2
The effective quantum field theory description of gravity, despite its non-renormalizability, allows for predictions beyond classical general relativity. As we enter the age of gra…
Can we detect the quantum nature of weak gravitational fields?
Francesco Coradeschi, Antonia Micol Frassino, Thiago Guerreiro +2
A theoretical framework for the quantization of gravity has been an elusive Holy Grail since the birth of quantum theory and general relativity. While generations of scientists hav…
Extended Thermodynamics and Complexity in Gravitational Chern-Simons Theory
Antonia Micol Frassino, Robert B. Mann, Jonas R. Mureika
We study several aspects of the extended thermodynamics of BTZ black holes with thermodynamic mass and angular momentum , for general val…
Testing nonlocal gravity with Lunar Laser Ranging
Enis Belgacem, Andreas Finke, Antonia Frassino +1
We study the impact of the limit on from Lunar Laser Ranging on "nonlocal gravity", i.e. on models of the quantum effective action of gravity that include nonlocal te…
Geometric model of black hole quantum -portrait, extradimensions and thermodynamics
Antonia M. Frassino, Sven Köppel, Piero Nicolini
Recently a short scale modified black hole metric, known as holographic metric, has been proposed in order to capture the self-complete character of gravity. In this paper we show…
Lower-Dimensional Black Hole Chemistry
Antonia M. Frassino, Robert B. Mann, Jonas R. Mureika
The connection between black hole thermodynamics and chemistry is extended to the lower-dimensional regime by considering the rotating and charged BTZ metric in the -D and a…
