    Are time and space infinitely smooth?

    Einsteins theory assumes spacetime is a classical manifold,infinitely divisible

    This may be just an approximate behavior Can we measure the minimum interval of time?

    Measurement of holographic noise

    Holographic wave geometry predicts a new detectable effect:"holographic noise

    Not the same as zero-point field mode fluctuations Spectrum and distinctive spatial character of the noise is predicted

    with no parameters

    It may already be detected An experimental program is motivated

    This is what we found out about Naturesbook keeping system: the data can be written

    onto a surface, and the pen with which the

    data are written has a finite size.

    3D world can be

    Holography 2: Black Hole Evaporation

    Hawking (1975): black holes radiate ~thermal radiation, loseenergy and disappear

    evaporated quanta carry off degrees of freedom (~1 perparticle) as area decreases

    States on 2D event horizon completely account for informationof evaporated states, assembly histories

    Information of evaporated particles=entropy of hole= A/4

    16AEI, May 2009

  • 8/7/2019 teoria olografica

    17/70

    black hole evaporation can obey quantum mechanics if

    distant, nearly flat space has transverse indeterminacy

    If the quantum states of the evaporated particles allowed relativetransverse position observables with arbitrary angular precision, at

    large distance they would contain more information than the hole

    Holography 3: nearly-flat spacetime

    Unruh (1976): Hawking radiation seen by accelerating observer Appears with any event horizon, not just black holes: identify

    entropy of thermal radiation with missing information

    Holography 4: Covariant (Holographic) Entropy Bounds

    't Hooft (1985): black holes are quantum systems 't Hooft, Susskind et al. (~1993): world is "holographic",

    encoded in 2+1D at the Planck scale

    Black hole is highest entropy state (per volume) and setsbound on entropy of any system (includes quantum degrees of

    freedom of spacetime)

    All physics within a 3D volume can be encoded on a 2Dbounding surface ("holographic principle")

    Bousso (2002): holographic principle generalized to "covariantentropy bound" based on causal diamonds: entropy of 3D lightsheets bounded by area of 2D bounding surface in Planck units

    Suggests that 3+1D geometry emerges from a quantum theoryin 2+1D: light sheets

    Holography 5: Exact dual theories in N-1 dimensions

    Maldacena, Witten et al. (1997): AdS/CFT correspondence N dimensional conformal field "boundary" theory exactly maps

    onto (is dual to) N+1 dimensional "bulk" theory with gravity and

    supersymmetric field theory

    Is nearly flat 3+1 spacetime described as a dual in 2+1?

    All degrees of freedom appear accounted for Agrees with Hawking/Beckenstein thermodynamic count Unitary quantum system Strong indication of a minimum length ~ Planck length What do the degrees of freedom look like in a realistic system?

    Holographic geometry: part of new dark energy physics?

    Holographic blurring is ~0.1mm at the Hubble length

    ~(0.1mm)^-4 is the dark energy density Nonlocality length for dark energy is holographic

    displacement uncertainty, scaled to Hubble length

    (literature on holographic dark energy centers on samenumerology)

    Does not explain dark energy!

    Items to discuss at the Hannover workshop

    What is the status of the GEO600 mystery noise? What are the prospects for GEO600 to test the holographic

    noise hypothesis?

    Are the theoretical arguments strong enough to motivate anew, dedicated high-frequency experiment, independent of the

    results from GEO600?

    What are the optimal design choices? (configuration, size,power,...)

    Will there be two experiments? (Fermilab and Hannover?) If so, what will be the similarities and differences betweenthem? What about LIGO?
