Quantum Aspects of Gravity
P. C. Argyres, A. O. Barvinski, V. Frolov +4
Contributions from the G1 Working Group at the APS Summer Study on Particle and Nuclear Astrophysics and Cosmology in the Next Millennium, Snowmass, Colorado, June 29 - July 14, 19…
Black Hole Evolution
Larus Thorlacius
Black hole formation and evaporation is studied in the semiclassical approximation in simple 1+1-dimensional models, with emphasis on issues related to Hawking's information parado…
Conformally Invariant Boundary Conditions for Dilaton Gravity
A. Strominger, L. Thorlacius
Quantum mechanical boundary conditions along a timelike line, corresponding to the origin in radial coordinates, in two-dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to matter fields, ar…
Free Fermion Representation of a Boundary Conformal Field Theory
J. Polchinski, L. Thorlacius
The theory of a massless two-dimensional scalar field with a periodic boundary interaction is considered. At a critical value of the period this system defines a conformal field th…
Universality and Scaling at the Onset of Quantum Black Hole Formation
A. Strominger, L. Thorlacius
In certain two-dimensional models, collapsing matter forms a black hole if and only if the incoming energy flux exceeds the Hawking radiation rate. Near the critical threshold, the…
