Quenched entanglement harvesting
Adrian Lopez-Raven, Robert B. Mann, Jorma Louko
Ultracold fermionic atoms in an optical lattice, with a sudden position-dependent change (a quench) in the effective dispersion relation, have been proposed by RodrÃguez-Laguna et…
Measuring black hole spin through gravitational lensing of pulsars
Amjad Ashoorioon, Mohammad Bagher Jahani Poshteh, Robert B. Mann
We propose a new procedure for measuring the spin of a black hole with an unprecedented accuracy based on the gravitational lensing of millisecond pulsars. We derive the basic equa…
Black Hole Chemistry: the first 15 years
Robert B. Mann
The introduction of thermodynamics into gravitational physics began 5 decades ago with the discovery that black holes behave like thermodynamic systems once semiclassical quantum e…
Thermal Fisher information for a rotating BTZ black hole
Everett A. Patterson, Robert B. Mann
Relativistic quantum metrology provides a framework within which we can quantify the quality of measurement and estimation procedures while accounting for both quantum and relativi…
Harvesting Information Across the Horizon
S. Wang, M. R. Preciado Rivas, R. B. Mann
The effect of black holes on entanglement harvesting has been of considerable interest over the past decade. Research involving stationary Unruh-DeWitt (UDW) detectors near a (2+1)…
Deep in the knotted black hole
Massimiliano Spadafora, Manar Naeem, MarÃa R. Preciado-Rivas +2
We consider the transition rate of a freely falling Unruh-DeWitt detector, coupled linearly to a massless scalar quantum field prepared in the Hartle-Hawking-Israel state, as a pro…
