On Generalized Uncertainty Principle
We study generalized uncertainty principle through the basic concepts of limit and Fourier transformation to analyze the quantum theory of gravity or string theory from the perspective of a complex function. Motivated from the noncommutative nature of string theory, we have proposed a UV/IR mixing dependent function δ̃(∆x,∆k, ǫ). We arrived at the string uncertainty principle from the analyticit...
متن کاملGeneralized Uncertainty Principle and Quantum
In the present work the role that a generalized uncertainty principle could play in the quantization of the electromagnetic field is analyzed. It will be shown that we may speak of a Fock space, a result that implies that the concept of photon is properly defined. Nevertheless, in this new context the creation and annihilation operators become a function of the new term that modifies the Heisen...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics and the Generalized Uncertainty Principle
There is reason to believe in the existence of a minimal length that can in principle be measured. This viewpoint stems in part from the realization that if enough massenergy is confined to a small region of space, a black hole must form. For example if one increases the energy of colliding particles beyond the Planck energy, one expects the short distance effects to be hidden behind an event h...
متن کاملThe Franck-Hertz Experiment and the Ramsauer-Townsend Effect: Elastic and Inelastic Scattering of Electrons by Atoms
Franck and Hertz described the first observation of quantized excitation in 1914, one year after Bohr published his theory of the hydrogen atom with its concept of quantized energy states. They discovered that electrons moving through mercury vapor with an energy greater than or equal to a critical value near 4.9 eV can excite the 2536 Å line of the mercury spectrum. Electrons with less than th...
متن کاملOn Inflation with the Generalized Uncertainty Principle
In this paper we revisit the formulation of scalar field theories on de Sitter backgrounds subject to the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). The GUP arises in several contexts in string theory, but is most readily thought of as resulting from using strings as effective probes of geometry, which suggests an uncertainty relation incorporating the string scale ls. After reviewing the string ...
