Black Holes in String Theory

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Journal of Research and Development, 2017
A black hole is a region of space time exhibiting such strong gravitational effects that nothing not even particles and electromagnetic radiation such as light can escape from inside it. From the theoretical point of view, black holes provide an intriguing arena in which to explore the challenges posed by the reconciliation of general relativity and ...

An Overview of the Rock Art of AlUla: Tracing Changes in Content and Form Across 12,000 Years of Human History

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between 2018 and 2021, the Identification and Documentation of Immovable Heritage Assets (IDIHA) Project recorded over 19,000 rock art panels in the AlUla (al‐‘Ulā) region of north‐western Saudi Arabia. This study presents a chronological assessment of the corpus, drawing on superimpositions, datable motifs, inscriptions, and varnish formation,

The gravitational index of a small black ring

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
Certain supersymmetric elementary string states with angular momentum can be viewed as small black rings in a five-dimensional string theory. These black rings have zero area event horizon.

Foster Placement Breakdown: A Scoping Review of Care‐Experienced Narratives

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While there is an extensive body of international literature on foster care placement breakdown, little attention has been given to children's lived experience of this common phenomenon. Using a scoping review method, the study collates and synthesizes what is known about care‐experienced people's lived realities of breakdown.

BPS black holes, the Hesse potential, and the topological string [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Hesse potential is constructed for a class of four-dimensional N = 2 supersymmetric effective actions with S- and T-duality by performing the relevant Legendre transform by iteration.

Animal Logic: Locke and the Nature of Inference

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Can animals reason? If so, what would their reasoning consist in, and how, if at all, would it differ from its human counterpart? On these questions, John Locke stakes out a position that also merits consideration today. I argue that, for Locke, reasoning is a matter of the subject's construing her mental states as support for a conclusion ...

Quantum Aspects of Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this thesis we study two quantum aspects of black holes, their entropy and the Hawking effect. First, we present a model for the statistical interpretation of black hole entropy and show that this entropy emerges as a result of missing information ...

Phases and stability of non-uniform black strings

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We construct solutions of non-uniform black strings in dimensions from D ≈ 9 all the way up to D = ∞, and investigate their thermodynamics and dynamical stability.

Black holes in string theory

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 1989
The field equations, which emerge from string theory, are solved to leading order in α′ for the case of black hole space-times. We show how the results fit into a broader outlook on string theory and quantum gravity. In particular, it seems that string theory could cure some of the paradoxes associated with black hole evaporation.

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...
