Unified Theory Of Gravity and Electromagnetism : Classical and Quantum Aspects

open access: goldSSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
A unified classical theory of gravity and electromagnetism with a torsion vector  0, proposed by S N Bose in 1952, is introduced. In this theory, the torsion vector acts as a magnetic current and it is shown that (i) the electromagnetism is invariant under continuous Heaviside–Larmor transformations and (ii) the electric and magnetic charges are ...

Large Quantum Gravity Effects: Unforeseen Limitations of the Classical Theory [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review Letters, 1996
3-dimensional gravity coupled to Maxwell (or Klein-Gordon) fields is exactly soluble under the assumption of axi-symmetry. The solution is used to probe several quantum gravity issues. In particular, it is shown that the quantum fluctuations in the geometry are large unless the number and frequency of photons satisfy the inequality $\N(\hbar G )^2 <

Hamilton–Jacobi Wave Theory in Manifestly-Covariant Classical and Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: goldThe European Physical Journal C, 2019
A challenging issue in General Relativity concerns the determination of the manifestly-covariant continuum Hamiltonian structure underlying the Einstein field equations and the related formulation of the corresponding covariant Hamilton-Jacobi theory. The task is achieved by adopting a synchronous variational principle requiring distinction between the

A Classical Field Theory of Gravity and Electromagnetism

open access: diamondJournal of Modern Physics, 2014
A classical field theory of gravity and electromagnetism is developed. The starting point of the theory is the Maxwell equations which are directly tied to the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor. This is done through the derivatives of the Maxwell tensor which are equated to a vector field  contracted with the ...

Classical gauge theory of gravity [PDF]

open access: greenTheoretical and Mathematical Physics, 2002
The classical theory of gravity is formulated as a gauge theory on a frame bundle with spontaneous symmetry breaking caused by the existence of Dirac fermionic fields. The pseudo-Riemannian metric (tetrad field) is the corresponding Higgs field. We consider two variants of this theory.

A postquantum theory of classical gravity? [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review X, 2018
The effort to discover a quantum theory of gravity is motivated by the need to reconcile the incompatibility between quantum theory and general relativity. Here, we present an alternative approach by constructing a consistent theory of classical gravity coupled to quantum field theory.

Horizon-scale tests of gravity theories and fundamental physics from the Event Horizon Telescope image of Sagittarius A ∗ [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and quantum gravity, 2022
Horizon-scale images of black holes (BHs) and their shadows have opened an unprecedented window onto tests of gravity and fundamental physics in the strong-field regime.
