Title:

Search for echoes on the edge of quantum black holes



Title in Persian:

جستجو برای پژواک‌ها در لبه سیاه‌چاله‌های کوانتومی



Abstract:

I perform a template-based search for stimulated emission of Hawking radiation (or Boltzmann echoes) by combining the gravitational wave data from 47 binary black hole merger events observed by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration. With a Bayesian inference approach, I found no statistically significant evidence for this signal in either of the 3 Gravitational Wave Transient Catalogs GWTC-1, GWTC-2 and GWTC-3. However, the data cannot yet conclusively rule out the presence of Boltzmann echoes either, with the Bayesian evidence ranging within 0.3-1.6 for most events, and a common (non-vanishing) echo amplitude for all mergers being disfavoured at only 2:5 odds. The only exception is GW190521, the most massive and confidently detected event ever observed, which shows a positive evidence of 9.2 for stimulated Hawking radiation. The ''look-elsewhere'' effect for this outlier event is assessed by applying two distinct methods to add simulated signals in real data, before and after the event, giving false (true) positive detection probabilities for higher Bayes factors of 1.5%, 4.4% (35 ± 7 %, 35 ± 15 %). An optimal combination of posteriors yields an upper limit of A < 0.4 (at 90% confidence level) for a universal echo amplitude, whereas A ~1 was predicted in the canonical model. To ensure the robustness of the results, I have employed an additional method to combine the events hierarchically. This approach involves using a target gaussian distribution and extracting the parameters from multiple uncertain observations, which may be affected by selection biases. The next generation of gravitational wave detectors such as LISA, Einstein Telescope, and Cosmic Explorer can draw a better conclusion on the quantum nature of black hole horizons.

Impact of AGN feedback on the dynamics of gas; A Review Across Diverse Environments

Mojtaba Raouf Hajar Zarrin

(Leiden Observatory, Netherlands)


Abstract:

We examine the relationship between black hole activity and kinematic gas-star misalignment in different galaxies. In the case of brightest group galaxies (BGGs), the formation history of galaxy groups is assessed through "age-dating" as an indicator of distinct major mergers involving the BGG. BGGs within groups characterized by a higher frequency of major mergers are more likely to host active supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A consistent correlation is identified between the level of black hole activity, as indicated by the 1.4 GHz and 325 MHz radio emissions, and the degree of kinematic misalignment between the gas and stellar components in BGGs. In dynamically "fossil" groups, where black hole accretion rate is relatively (~ 1 dex) lower due to the lack of recent (≤ 1 Gyr) major mergers, there is reduced (~ 30%) misalignment between the gas and stellar components of BGGs compared to non-fossil groups. Through examining the smaller-scale properties and dynamics of the gas disc influenced by mechanical AGN feedback, hydrodynamic simulations (HDGAS) suggest that AGN wind-induced effects further lead to persistent gas misalignment of the disk around the supermassive black hole, independent of environmental impacts.

Title of talk

2D Bi-Scalar Gravity from 4D Horndeski Theory

گرانش دو-اسکالر دو-بعدی منتج شده از نظریه ی هورندسکی چهار بعدی

Date and time

Abstract

In this talk, I will present aspects of 2D scalar-tensor theories. First, I will construct a 2D bi-scalar gravity from a 4D Horndeski theory using a Kaluza-Klein (KK) dimensional reduction on a 2-sphere. I will then provide some identities to write the action in a more compact form and use these to develop a more generalized 2D bi-scalar theory. Following this, I will use the KK reduction process to map 4D Horndeski solutions to 2D bi-scalar theory solutions.
In the second half of the talk, I will explore the single-scalar version of the 2D bi-scalar gravity. I will discuss how some important 2D single-scalar theories may have a 4D origin. I will then investigate the relationship between some key 2D single-scalar tensor theories, explaining how the 2D Horndeski theory and GRZ model can be derived from JT gravity using disformal transformation.

Abstract

We revisit entanglement wedge reconstruction in AdS/CFT using the Petz recovery channel. In the case of a spherical region on the boundary, we show that the Petz map reproduces the AdS-Rindler HKLL reconstruction. Moreover, for a generic subregion of the boundary, we could obtain the same boundary representation of a local bulk field lies in the entanglement wedge as the one proposed earlier in JLMS paper using properties of the modular flow.
با سلام و عرض احترام،

روز شنبه ۲۷ مرداد ماه (فردا)، ساعت ۱۰-۱۲ صبح، در فضای مجازی سخنرانی و گپ و گفتی با عنوان «زنان تاثیرگذار در فیزیک ذرات» خواهیم داشت. طبعا سخنرانی را با یادی از خانواده کوری ها آغاز خواهیم کرد. سپس یادی از امی نوتر خواهیم نمود. از ماریا گوپرت مایر یاد کرده، به آزمایش «وو» خواهیم پرداخت. با توجه به این که هفته گذشته، تی-دی-لی جان به جان آفرین تسلیم کرد، به سهم ایشان به همراه سی-ان-ینگ در کشف نقض پاریته نیزاشاره خواهیم کرد. سپس به میلا بالدو و دستاوردهای علمی او و نیز دستاوردهای همنسلان او برای حقوق زنان خواهیم پرداخت.

در خلال بحث ها، به نکات و کلیشه هایی خواهیم پرداخت که زنان و مردان در جامعه دانشگاهی ایران-به خصوص در جامعه فیزیک ایران- با آنها درگیرند. امیدواریم با ایجاد هشیاری در این زمینه زنان و مردان جوان را که قدم در راه مسیر طولانی کارهای پژوهشی نهاده اند از درگیر شدن با حاشیه های بی ثمر باز داریم.

از کلیه خانم ها و آقای علاقه مند به این گونه بحث ها دعوت می نمایم که در این جلسه شرکت کنند. پوستر برنامه در پیوست موجود است.

Title:

The Two-Nucleon 1S0 Amplitude Zero in Chiral Effective Field Theory


Title in Persian:

صفر دامنه ی دو نوکلئونی 1S0 در نظریه ی میدان موثر کایرال

Abstract:

Recently, a new rearrangement of short-range interactions has been suggested in the 1S0 nucleon-nucleon channel within Chiral Effective Field Theory. This is intended to reproduce the amplitude zero at leading order, and it includes subleading corrections perturbatively in a way that is consistent with renormalization-group invariance. Systematic improvement is shown at next-to-leading order, the obtained results have been fitted empirical phase shifts remarkably well all the way up to the pion-production threshold. An approach in which pions have been integrated out is included, which allows us to present analytic results that also fit phenomenology surprisingly well.

Title:

Solar neutrinos and leptonic spin forces



Title in Persian:

نیروهای اسپین لپتونی و نوترینوهای خورشیدی



Abstract:

In this talk, I quantify the effects of light spin-zero particles with pseudoscalar couplings to leptons and scalar couplings to nucleons on the evolution of solar neutrinos. I show in this scenario the matter potential sourced by the nucleons in the Sun’s matter gives rise to spin precession of the relativistic neutrino ensemble. For Dirac neutrinos, the spin-flavour precession results in active-sterile oscillations, while for Majorana neutrinos it results in left-handed neutrino to right-handed antineutrino oscillations. In both cases, this leads to distortions in the solar neutrino spectrum which we use to derive constraints on the allowed values of the mediator mass and couplings via a global analysis of the solar neutrino data. In addition for Majorana neutrinos, spin-flavour precession results into a potentially observable flux of solar electron antineutrinos at the Earth which we quantify and constrain with the existing bounds from Borexino and KamLAND.

A novel global charge conservation in the symmetric phase of the early Universe

Abstract

In the Standard Model at high temperatures, anomalous effects contribute to the violation of baryon number ($B$) and lepton number ($L$), separately, while $B-L$ remains conserved. There are also corresponding changes in the helicity of the hypermagnetic field ($h$) and the Chern-Simons numbers of the non-Abelian gauge fields ($N_{\rm CS,W}$ and $N_{\rm CS,S}$). In this study, we investigate a baryogenesis process in the symmetric phase of the early Universe by taking into account the Abelian and non-Abelian anomalous effects as well as the perturbative chirality-flip processes of all fermions. We calculate explicitly the time evolution of all relevant physical quantities, including those of $h$ and $N_{\rm CS,W}$, and show that there is another conserved global charge involving total matter-antimatter asymmetry $B+L$, hypermagnetic helicity $h_B$ and $N_{\rm CS,W}$.
The course outline: Quantum Field Theory I, Fall 2024


This is an introductory course on quantum field theory (QFT). QFT is a fundamental requirement in the studies of theoretical high energy physics, particle physics and early universe cosmology. It is a vast and well-established subject with applications in many branches of theoretical physics and cosmology. There are many textbooks on QFT, old and new. In this course we will mainly follow the book by Peskin & Schroeder (Perseus Books, 1995). This is an excellent book, emphasizing on various aspects of QFT, both at the level of formalisms and applications. There are other useful books which may be consulted as well. For example, the book by Schwartz (Cam- bridge University Press, 2014) is very useful as well. The QFT book by Steven Weinberg (Cambridge University Press, volume I, 1995) is an excellent reference for deeper under- standings of various topics in QFT. However, because of its high level of presentation, it is not suggested as a regular text book for a first time study in QFT. This is a three-unit course. Our goal is to cover most of part I of Peskin & Schroeder, chapters 1-7.


Time and place of the course: Sunday and Tuesday, 9:00 - 10:30, IPM, School of Astronomy, Larak garden.
