Complex frequency modes occur for a scalar field near a rapidly rotating star {\it with ergoregion but no event horizon}. Such complex frequency modes must be included in the quantization of the field. As a model for this system, we have…

Superradiance is a process by which massive bosonic particles can extract energy from spinning black holes, leading to the build up of a "cloud" if the particle has a Compton wavelength comparable to the black hole's Schwarzschild radius.…

We derive a generalized zero-range pseudopotential applicable to all partial wave solutions to the Schroedinger equation based on a delta-shell potential in the limit that the shell radius approaches zero. This properly models all higher…

By converting the Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz (ABA) of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM into non-linear integral equations, we find 2D scattering amplitudes of excitations on top of the GKP vacuum. We prove that this is a suitable and powerful set-up for the…

The study of the gravitational field produced by a spatially non-local, superposed quantum state of a massive particle is a thrilling area of modern physics. One question to be answered is whether the gravitational field behaves as the…
