Using the action principle we first review how linear density perturbations (sound waves) in an Eulerian fluid obey a relativistic equation: the d'Alembert equation. This analogy between propagation of sound and that of a massless scalar…
As long as we neglect backreaction, the Hawking temperature of a given black hole would not depend upon the parameters of the particle species we are considering. In the semiclassical complex path analysis approach of Hawking radiation,…
Gravity and gauge theory are concretely linked by the double copy. Although well-studied at the level of perturbative scattering in vacuum, far less is known about non-perturbative aspects or extensions of the double copy beyond trivial…
