In the spherically symmetric case the Einstein field equations take on their simplest form for a matter-density rho = 1 / (8 pi r^2), from which a radial metric coefficient g_{rr} \propto r follows. The boundary of an object with such an…

Casimir-Polder interaction arises from the vacuum fluctuations of quantum field that depend on spacetime curvature and thus is spacetime-dependent. Here we show how to use the resonance Casimir-Polder interaction (RCPI) between two…

We demonstrate that hot superheavy nuclei do not retain spherical shapes, as traditionally assumed, but instead equilibrate in deformed, often oblate or triaxial, configurations at finite excitation energy. This behavior arises from a…

Hawking evaporation of photons in a Vaidya-de Sitter black hole is investigated by using the method of generalized tortoise coordinate transformation. Both the location and the temperature of the event horizon depend on the time. It is…

Studies of the abundances of deuterium in different astrophysical sites are of fundamental importance to answering the question about how much deuterium was produced during big bang nucleosynthesis and what fraction of it was destroyed…

This work investigates the semiclassical evolution of the Hawking atmosphere surrounding evaporating, spherically symmetric anti-de Sitter (adS) black holes. We model the evaporation process within a dynamical framework, treating the…
