2:00 PM - 4:00 PM	Physics Seminar - Quantum Corrections to Thermodynamics of Cold Black Holes Location: > See description for location Contact: Physics Department Description: Speaker: Ahmed Sheta, PhD student, Harvard University Date: Tuesday, April 16, 2024 Time: 2:00pm Zoom Link: https://umassd.zoom.us/j/97194605612?pwd=Z2phOWpaanRFdnNrWk9GVFAyZWQ1QT09 Abstract: In this talk, I will review the framework of black hole thermodynamics set up by Bekenstein & Hawking in the 70's, and possible insights it could shed on quantum theories of gravity. I will then describe the low temperature (high-spin) limit of thermodynamics of rotating black holes, and I will review an old puzzle related to the breakdown of thermodynamics as the black hole spins close to the speed of light. Then, I will discuss recent work in which we resolved this puzzle by properly accounting for quantum corrections which dominate the low-temperature thermodynamics. Biography: Ahmed Sheta is a PhD student at Harvard University. Originally from Egypt, he did his bachelor's at Columbia University (Class of 2021) and is currently a graduate student in the group of Andrew Strominger. He is working on various aspects of black hole physics, within both classical and quantum gravity. NOTE: All PHY Graduate Students are ENCOURAGED to attend.
