Probing quantum gravity effects in black holes at LHC
We study modifications of the Hawking emission in the evaporation of miniature black holes possibly produced in accelerators when their mass approaches the fundamental scale of gravity, set to 1TeV according to some extra dimension models. Back-reaction and quantum gravity corrections are modelled by employing modified relations between the black hole mass and temperature. We release the assump...
متن کامل0 Probing Quantum Aspects of Gravity ⋆
We emphasize that a specific aspect of quantum gravity is the absence of a superselection rule that prevents a linear superposition of different gravitational charges. As an immediate consequence, we obtain a tiny, but observable, violation of the equivalence principle, provided, inertial and gravitational masses are not assumed to be operationally identical objects. In this framework, the cosm...
متن کاملCollective Behavior of Coupled Quantum Mechanical Oscillators
A simple model of coupled oscillators is investigated from the perspective of quantum mechanics. The classical model of two oscillators connected by a common platform can be easily solved analytically, but the quantum system requires a numerical approach. We assume that both the oscillators and the platform are quantum objects in their respective ground states at start and they evolve in time a...
متن کاملProbing Vacuum with Variational Methods in Quantum Gravity
We use variational methods to calculate quasilocal energy quantum corrections. A comparison with the effective potential calculated at quadratic order is made by means of gaussian wave functionals. The method is a particular case of the effective action for composite operators used in quantum field theory. In pure gravity the method is applied for the first time. Implications on the foam-like s...
متن کاملProbing loop quantum gravity with evaporating black holes.
This Letter aims at showing that the observation of evaporating black holes should allow the usual Hawking behavior to be distinguished from loop quantum gravity (LQG) expectations. We present a full Monte Carlo simulation of the evaporation in LQG and statistical tests that discriminate between competing models. We conclude that contrarily to what was commonly thought, the discreteness of the ...
