Real-time observables in horizon thermodynamics

General Relativity Seminar Speaker: Albert Law, Stanford Title: Real-time observables in horizon thermodynamics Abstract: Euclidean black hole 1-loop determinants have recently been shown to compute a renormalized thermal canonical partition function for free fields in Lorentzian signature. A key ingredient is a 'quasinormal mode (QNM) character', whose Fourier transform equals the renormalized spectral density of the single-particle […]
