Making two particle detectors in flat spacetime communicate quantumly (2024)
Journal Article
Lapponi, A., Louko, J., & Mancini, S. (2024). Making two particle detectors in flat spacetime communicate quantumly. Physical Review D, 110(2), Article 025018. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.110.025018

A communication protocol with nonzero quantum capacity is found when the two communicating parts are particle detector models in (3+1)-dimensional spacetime. In particular, as detectors, we consider two harmonic oscillators interacting with a scalar... Read More about Making two particle detectors in flat spacetime communicate quantumly.

More excitement across the horizon (2024)
Journal Article
Preciado-Rivas, M. R., Naeem, M., Mann, R. B., & Louko, J. (2024). More excitement across the horizon. Physical Review D, 110(2), Article 025002. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.110.025002

An Unruh-DeWitt detector falling radially into a four-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole, coupled linearly to a massless scalar field that has been prepared in the Hartle-Hawking or Unruh state, has recently been shown to exhibit a local extremum i...

Ambient temperature versus ambient acceleration in the circular motion Unruh effect (2024)
Journal Article
Bunney, C. R., Parry, L., Perche, T. R., & Louko, J. (2024). Ambient temperature versus ambient acceleration in the circular motion Unruh effect. Physical Review D, 109(6), Article 065001. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.065001

It is well known that the experience of a linearly accelerated observer with acceleration a, interacting with a massless scalar field in its vacuum state in 3+1 Minkowski spacetime, is identical to that of a static observer interacting with a massles...

Vacua in locally de Sitter cosmologies, and how to distinguish them (2024)
Journal Article
Toussaint, V., & Louko, J. (2024). Vacua in locally de Sitter cosmologies, and how to distinguish them. Physical Review D, 109(2), Article 025007. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.025007

(1 + 1)-dimensional locally de Sitter–Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmologies with compact spatial sections allow cosh, sinh, and exponential evolution laws, each with a freely specifiable spatial circumference parameter, and the value of this paramet...
