We discuss the thermal and magnetic entanglement in the one-dimensional Kondo necklace model. Firstly, we show how the entanglement naturally present at zero temperature is distributed among pairs of spins according to the strength of the…
A thermo field dynamics approach for calculating the entropy of a spacetime is suggested. It is exemplified through the Rindler spacetime, the Milne spacetime, the Boulware spacetime, and the Minkowski spacetime with a moving mirror that…
The relative entropy between very high energy localized excitations and the vacuum, where both states are reduced to a spatial region, gives place to a precise definition of a local temperature produced by vacuum entanglement across the…
One perceives same response of a single-atom detector when placed at a point outside the horizon in Schwarzschild spacetime to that of a static single-atom detector in thermal Minkowski spacetime. So one cannot distinguish Schwarzschild…
Scalar radiation, represented by a massless scalar field in a Robertson-Walker metric, is taken into account. By using a weak non minimum vacuum definition, the radiation temperature as a time dependent function is obtained. When the…
The Unruh effect is the phenomenon that accelerated observers detect particles even when inertial observers experience the vacuum state. In particular, uniformly accelerated observers are predicted to measure thermal radiation that is…
We construct analogues for the quantum phenomena of black hole radiation in the context of {\it classical field theory}. Hawking radiation from a (radially) collapsing star is mathematically equivalent to radiation from a mirror moving…
This dissertation investigates thermodynamic, emergent and holographic aspects of gravity in the context of causal diamonds. We obtain a gravitational first law for causal diamonds in maximally symmetric spacetimes and argue that these…
In this paper, we study the thermal time hypothesis of arXiv:gr-qc/9406019 in the context of noncommutative deformations of Minkowski. We show that a natural modular group arises from the modular function of the momentum space. In the…
Quantum entanglement of the Minkowski vacuum state between left and right Rindler wedges generates thermal behavior in the right Rindler wedge, which is known as the Unruh effect. In this letter, we show that there is another consequence of…
Within quantum field theory on a global monopole spacetime, we study thermal effects on a naked singularity and its relation with boundary conditions. We first obtain the two-points functions for the ground state and for thermal states of a…
The fundamental vacuum state of quantum fields, related to Minkowski space, produces divergent fluctuations that must be suppressed in order to bring reality to the description of physical systems. As a consequence, negative vacuum…
Thermal phenomena in quantum field theory can be detected with the aid of particle detectors coupled to quantum fields along stationary worldlines, by testing whether the response of such a detector satisfies the detailed balance version of…
The master equation describing the completely positive time evolution of a uniformly accelerated two-level system in weak interaction with a scalar field in the Minkowski vacuum is derived and explicitly solved. It encodes the well known…
Nitrogen-Vacancy centers in diamond possess an electronic spin resonance that strongly depends on temperature, which makes them efficient temperature sensor with a sensitivity down to a few mK/$\sqrt{\rm Hz}$. However, the high thermal…
Symmetry-determined nonlinear normal modes, which describe large-amplitude vibrations of diamond lattice, are studied by specific group-theoretical methods. For two of these modes, corresponding to vibrational state with and without…
The behaviors of the modes for a massless minimally coupled scalar field are investigated for the Unruh state for Schwarzschild spacetime and the "in" vacuum state for a spacetime in which a spherically symmetric null shell collapses to…
The effect of Hawking radiation on the redistribution of the entanglement and mutual information in the Schwarzschild spacetime is investigated. Our analysis shows that the physically accessible correlations degrade while the unaccessible…
In general relativity, cosmology and quantum field theory, spacetime is assumed to be an orientable manifold endowed with a Lorentz metric that makes it spatially and temporally orientable. The question as to whether the laws of physics…
We investigate the timelike transitions in a two-level atom in the presence of an infinite reflecting mirror in the future-past light cone regions of a Minkowski spacetime, as well as in the region interior of a $(1+1)$ dimensional…
