Entropy Density of Space – Time and Gravity : a Conceptual Synthesis
نویسنده
چکیده
I show that combining the principle of equivalence and the principle of general covariance with the known properties of local Rindler horizons, perceived by accelerated observers, leads to the following inescapable conclusion: The field equations describing gravity in any diffeomorphism-invariant theory must have a thermodynamic interpretation. This synthesis of quantum theory, thermodynamics and gravity shows that the gravitational dynamics can be interpreted completely in terms of entropy balance between matter and space–time. This idea has far-reaching implications for the microstructure of space–time and quantum gravity.

3D gravity data-space inversion with sparseness and bound constraints
One of the most remarkable basis of the gravity data inversion is the recognition of sharp boundaries between an ore body and its host rocks during the interpretation step. Therefore, in this work, it is attempted to develop an inversion approach to determine a 3D density distribution that produces a given gravity anomaly. The subsurface model consists of a 3D rectangular prisms of known sizes ...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of time lapse gravity for monitoring fluid saturation changes in a giant multi-phase gas reservoir located in south of Iran
The time lapse gravity method is a widely used technique to monitor the subsurface density changes in time and space. In hydrocarbon reservoirs, the density variations are due to different factors, such as: substitution of fluids with high density contrast, water influx, gas injection, and the variation in reservoir geomechanical behavior. Considering the monitoring of saturation changes in the...
متن کاملEquipartition of Microscopic Degrees of Freedom, Space–time Entropy and Holography∗
One can identify the number density of the microscopic space–time degrees of freedom in any diffeomorphism-invariant theory of gravity by using the principle of equipartition, applied to the area elements of a surface ∂V which are at the local Unruh temperature. The entropy associated with these degrees of freedom, which matches with the Wald entropy for the theory, can be used to obtain the fi...
متن کاملProviding a conceptual model of the underground space as a urban development catalyst Using the grounded theory
Aims & backgrounds: Over time, cities are confronted with a number of natural and artificial problems such as lack of green and open spaces, high density and lack of recreational spaces, which in some cases can be reasonably efficient use of subsurface spaces. Builders of subsurface space are the urban development catalyst. Methodology: The purpose of this study is qualitative and fundament...
متن کاملThe phase transition of corrected black hole with f(R) gravity
In this letter, we consider static black hole in f(R) gravity.We take advantage from corrected entropy and temperature and investigate such black hole. Finally, we study the $ P - V $ critically and phase transition of corrected black hole with respect to entropy and temperature. Here also, we obtain the heat capacity for the static black hole in $ f(R) $ gravity. This calculation help us...
