Gravity and the Thermodynamics of Horizons
Spacetimes with horizons show a resemblance to thermodynamic systems and it is possible to associate the notions of temperature and entropy with them. Several aspects of this connection are reviewed in a manner appropriate for broad readership. The approach uses two essential principles: (a) the physical theories must be formulated for each observer entirely in terms of variables any given obse...
متن کاملOn the thermodynamics of universal horizons in Einstein-Æther theory
The theories of gravity which violate local Lorentz invariance do not admit a universal maximum speed of signal-propagation. Different field excitations see a different effective metric and hence a different light cone. In these theories, although one can define the Killing horizon in a conventional way, this definition does not capture the notion of a black hole. This is so because there exist...
متن کاملA Few Words on Entropy, Thermodynamics, and Horizons
We review recent progress in understanding certain aspects of the thermodynamics of black holes and other horizons. Our discussion centers on various “entropy bounds” which have been proposed in the literature and on the current understanding of how such bounds are not required for the semi-classical consistency of black hole thermodynamics. Instead, consistency under certain extreme circumstan...
متن کاملHorizon Entropy in Modified Gravity
Peng Wang ∗ Department of Physics, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-4060, USA † Abstract We present an observation about the proposal that four-dimensional modification of general relativity may explain the observed cosmic acceleration today. Assuming that the thermodynamical nature of gravity theory continues to hold in modified gravity theories, we derive the modified horizon entropy f...
متن کاملIsolated Horizons and Black Hole Entropy in Loop Quantum Gravity
We review the black hole entropy calculation in the framework of Loop Quantum Gravity based on the quasi-local definition of a black hole encoded in the isolated horizon formalism. We show, by means of the covariant phase space framework, the appearance in the conserved symplectic structure of a boundary term corresponding to a Chern–Simons theory on the horizon and present its quantization bot...
