广义相对论与量子宇宙学
We provide some guidance and examples to clear up common misconceptions about special relativity. These misconceptions often come from trying to express the truths of special relativity in Newtonian terms rather than in terms more natural…
Close hyperbolic encounters between black holes produce distinctive bursts of gravitational radiation with a time-frequency morphology that is qualitatively different from that of quasi-circular inspirals. Expected to arise in dense stellar…
In this work, we delve into the physics of charged black holes modified by Weyl corrections, a framework that emerges from the subtle non--minimal coupling between spacetime curvature and electromagnetism. We begin by revisiting the…
We investigate the gravitational field of an extended spherically symmetric body within the framework of Extended Relativity (ER), a Lorentz-covariant formulation of relativistic gravity on a Minkowski background. Using a relativistic…
Massive scalar perturbations of asymptotically de Sitter black holes in generalized Proca theory display a sharp interplay between primary hair, horizon structure, and field mass. Using high-order WKB calculations supplemented by…
The gradient expansion and the separate universe approach provide an effective description of inflationary soft modes after coarse-graining shorter-wavelength degrees of freedom. We formulate a locality condition on the quantum state,…
We analytically prove the linear radial stability of non-Abelian black holes with quartic self-interactions. The background, constructed from the Wu--Yang magnetic monopole ansatz, is an exact black-hole solution carrying a non-Abelian…
We construct a new Ricci-flat metric by demagnetizing the recently reported Kerr-Bertotti-Robinson (KBR) solution. The metric is a deformation of the Kerr metric characterized by a parameter $B$, so that the asymptotic Kerr becomes a…
Accurate models of merger remnants are increasingly important for gravitational-wave science, including precision tests of gravity with ringdown, inference of black-hole populations, and modeling hierarchical mergers. For eccentric…
The cosmological gravitational wave background provides a powerful window on parity-violating physics at energies far beyond the reach of terrestrial experiments. However, any colocated planar detector network is insensitive to isotropic…
We show that the quasinormal modes, in the eikonal limit, for accelerating (non-rotating) black holes, are related to the angular velocity of the circular null geodesics and to the corresponding Lyapunov exponent, in the same way as the…
Gravitational waves (GWs) can resonate with magnetic fields through the Gertsenshtein-Zeldovich effect, producing electromagnetic signals at the same frequency. In pulsar magnetospheres, this conversion may yield a faint radio-band signal…
In this work, we perform a relativistic test of the spacetime geometry of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) using the orbit of the S2 star. We consider a broad class of compact object models, including Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstr\"om, Bardeen,…
Gravitational waves (GWs) in the $0.01\sim1$ Hz band encode unique signatures of the early universe and merging compact objects, but they are beyond the reach of existing observatories. Theoretical models suggest that the Moon could act as…
The Blandford-Znajek (BZ) process is a pivotal mechanism to efficiently extract the energy from a rotating black hole (BH) via its plasma-filled magnetosphere in relativistic astrophysics. Within the framework of extended BZ monopole…
Recent observations of large-scale statistical isotropy violations have prompted the adoption of anisotropic cosmological models that account for inherent directional curvature. Studies of these anisotropic spacetimes have shown how they…
In this article, we explore the R\'enyi law constraints on black hole merger in Gau{\ss}-Bonnet (GB) gravity. Specifically, we consider the case of static solutions in five-dimensional (5D) Anti-de-Sitter (AdS) spacetime and study the…
A scalar ultralight dark matter (ULDM) candidate would induce oscillatory motion of freely falling test masses via its coupling to Standard Model fields. Such oscillations would create an observable Doppler shift of light exchanged between…
Using general relativistic radiative transfer (GRRT) simulations, we investigate the bright ring features and polarization structures in images of the Kerr-Sen black hole associated with Sgr A*, as illuminated by 230 GHz thermal synchrotron…
We develop a physics-facing version of the persistence/transition-variety framework for scalar-field cosmology, tailored to inflationary dynamics. The guiding idea is that observationally viable inflationary models are often best understood…
