UvA - DARE

The near horizon limit of the extremal BTZ black hole is a “self-dual orbifold” of AdS3. This geometry has a null circle on its boundary, and thus the dual field theory is a Discrete Light Cone Quantized (DLCQ) two dimensional CFT. The same geometry can be compactified to two dimensions giving AdS2 with a constant electric field. The kinematics of the DLCQ show that in a consistent quantum theo...

Inner Workings: Spacecraft dare to fly close to the sun.

A wide swath of North America was reminded during last summer’s eclipse that you can’t stare at the sun without protection. But to study the sun, space probes have to do much more than stare. They have to get extremely close to the sun’s unforgiving environs. Next year, two solar missions will do exactly that— traveling tens of millions of miles to study the sun’s outer atmosphere, its corona, ...
