Black Holes in Quantum Theories of Gravity

It is possible, in some theories of quantum gravity, to calculate the quantum corrections to ordinary, classical black holes. Contrarily to conventional black holes which are solutions of gravitational field equations of the general theory of relativity, quantum gravity black holes incorporate quantum gravity effects in the vicinity of the origin, where classically a curvature singularity occurs. According to the theory employed to model quantum gravity effects, there are different kinds of quantum gravity black holes, namely loop quantum black holes, noncommutative black holes, asympotically safe black holes. In these approaches black holes are singularity free.

Famous quotes containing the words black, holes, quantum, theories and/or gravity:

    The black dog gets the food; the white dog gets the blame.
    Chinese proverb.

    Keyholes are the occasions of more sin and wickedness, than all other holes in this world put together.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.
    Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)

    We do not talk—we bludgeon one another with facts and theories gleaned from cursory readings of newspapers, magazines and digests.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Grown beyond nature now, soft food for worms,
    They lift frail heads in gravity and good faith.
    Derek Mahon (b. 1941)
