Resolving the vicinity of supermassive black holes with gravitational microlensing

Upcoming wide-field surveys will discover thousands of new strongly lensed quasars which will be monitored with unprecedented cadence by the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Many of these quasars will undergo caustic-crossing events over the 10-yr L ...

Instability and trajectories of buoyancy-driven annular disks: A numerical study

François Gallaire, Pier Giuseppe Ledda

We investigate the stability of the steady vertical path and the emerging trajectories of a buoyancy -driven annular disk as the diameter of its central hole is varied. The steady and axisymmetric wake associated with the steady vertical path of the disk, ...

Covariant formulation of relativistic mechanics

Miguel Alexandre Ribeiro Correia

Accretion disks surrounding compact objects, and other environmental factors, deviate satellites from geodetic motion. Unfortunately, setting up the equations of motion for such relativistic trajectories is not as simple as in Newtonian mechanics. The prin ...

Polarised black holes in ABJM

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

We numerically construct asymptotically AdS(4) solutions to Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory. These have a dipolar electrostatic potential turned on at the conformal boundary S-2 x R-t. We find two classes of geometries: AdS soliton solutions that encode th ...

H0LiCOW-I. H-0 Lenses in COSMOGRAIL's Wellspring: program overview

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Vivien François Bonvin, Malte Tewes, Olga Tihhonova

Strong gravitational lens systems with time delays between the multiple images allow measurements of time-delay distances, which are primarily sensitive to the Hubble constant that is key to probing dark energy, neutrino physics and the spatial curvature o ...

Q-holes

Andrey Shkerin

We consider localized soliton-like solutions in the presence of a stable scalar condensate background. By the analogy with classical mechanics, it can be shown that there may exist solutions of the nonlinear equations of motion that describe dips or rises ...

Semiclassical S-matrix for black holes

Sergey Sibiryakov

We propose a semiclassical method to calculate S-matrix elements for two-stage gravitational transitions involving matter collapse into a black hole and evaporation of the latter. The method consistently incorporates back-reaction of the collapsing and emi ...

Kerr coefficients of plasma resonances in Josephson junction chains

Olexiy Feofanov

We present an experimental and theoretical analysis of the self-and cross-Kerr effect of extended plasma resonances in Josephson junction chains. We calculate the Kerr coefficients by deriving and diagonalizing the Hamiltonian of a linear circuit model for ...

(Re-)inventing the relativistic wheel: gravity, cosets, and spinning objects

Alexander Monin, Francesco Riva, Solomon G Shamsuddin Osman Endlich

Space-time symmetries are a crucial ingredient of any theoretical model in physics. Unlike internal symmetries, which may or may not be gauged and/or spontaneously broken, space-time symmetries do not admit any ambiguity: they are gauged by gravity, and an ...

Horava gravity versus thermodynamics: The black hole case

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino

Under broad assumptions, breaking of Lorentz invariance in gravitational theories leads to tension with unitarity because it allows for processes that apparently violate the second law of thermodynamics. The crucial ingredient of this argument is the exist ...

Galileon as a local modification of gravity

Riccardo Rattazzi

In the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) model, the "self-accelerating" solution is plagued by a ghost instability, which makes the solution untenable. This fact, as well as all interesting departures from general relativity (GR), are fully captured by a four- ...

Black hole bound on the number of species and quantum gravity at CERN LHC

In theories with a large number N of particle species, black hole physics imposes an upper bound on the mass of the species equal to M-Planck/root N. This bound suggests a novel solution to the hierarchy problem in which there are N approximate to 10(32) g ...

Excited excitonic states observed in semiconductor quantum dots using polarization resolved optical spectroscopy

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Daniel Oberli, Valentina Troncale

We present results on the polarization-resolved photoluminescence emitted from InGaAs/AlGaAs single quantum dots (QDs) grown in inverted tetrahedral pyramids. The emitted light was detected for two mutually perpendicular linear polarization directions in t ...
