Particle dynamics and the accretion disk around a Self-dual Black Hole immersed in a magnetic field in Loop Quantum Gravity

Abstract

In this paper, we study the motion of magnetic dipoles and electrically charged particles in the vicinity of a self-dual black hole in Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) immersed in an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. We explore the effects of the quantum correction parameter and electromagnetic interactions on the particle geodesics. We derive the field equations and determine the electromagnetic four-vector potential for the case of a self-dual black hole in LQG. We investigate the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCOs) for both magnetic dipoles and electrically charged particles in detail, demonstrating that the quantum correction parameter significantly influences on the ISCO radius, causing it to shrink. Additionally, we show that the ISCO radius of magnetic dipoles is greater than that of electrically charged particles due to the magnetic field interaction. We investigate the ISCO parameters (i.e., $r_{ISCO}$, $l_{ISCO}$, $\mathcal{E}_{ISCO}$, $v_{ISCO}$, and $\Omega_{ISCO}$) for magnetic dipoles and electrically charged particles, providing detailed values. Furthermore, we examine the trajectories of charged particles under various scenarios resulting from the quantum correction parameter $P$. Finally, analyzing the ISCO parameters that define the inner edge of the accretion disk, we explore the accretion disk around a self-dual black hole in LQG. We delve into the electromagnetic radiation flux, temperature, and differential luminosity as radiation properties of the accretion disk in detail. We show that the quantum correction parameter shifts the profile of the electromagnetic flux and accretion disk temperature towards the central object, leading to a slight increase in these quantities.

Electrovacuum Black Hole Uniqueness

We prove the black hole uniqueness conjecture in the axially symmetric, stationary, electrovacuum setting, subject to the refined asymptotic analysis of the associated singular harmonic maps, which includes an analyticity hypothesis at the axes. More precisely, it is shown that any asymptotically flat solution of the Einstein--Maxwell equations in this class, with more than one black hole horizon component is either: Majumdar--Papapetrou, up to a duality rotation, in which case all logarithmic angle defects vanish, or every finite axis rod logarithmic angle defect is strictly negative and hence every interaction force is strictly attractive. The proof extends the singular harmonic map method used for vacuum Kerr uniqueness in [18].

Constraining Modified Mass-to-Horizon Cosmology Through Primordial Inflationary Observables

We investigate slow-roll inflation in a modified cosmological framework inspired by a generalized mass-to-horizon relation (MHR), $M=\gamma {c^2 L^n}/{G}$, where $n$ is a real parameter and $\gamma$ a dimensional constant. Using Padmanabhan's emergence paradigm, we derive the modified Friedmann equations for a flat FRW universe and analyze the dynamics of a canonical scalar field (inflaton) under the slow-roll approximation. We study the resulting inflationary phenomenology for power-law and Starobinsky potentials. For power-law potentials, the MHR modification fails to reconcile these models with current CMB constraints on $r$ and $n_s$. In contrast, Starobinsky inflation exhibits significant sensitivity to deviations from $n=1$. A perturbative analysis ($n=1+\Delta$) yields corrections to inflationary observables. We observe that the scalar power-spectrum normalization, under a fixed-Starobinsky prescription, imposes the stringent constraint $0.960 \lesssim n \lesssim 1.040$ for $N=60$ efolds. This is considerably tighter than spectral-index bounds. Our results establish inflation, particularly Starobinsky-like models, as a sensitive probe of generalized horizon thermodynamics and departures from standard MHR scaling.

Improving the Sensitivity of Gravitational Wave Detection with Weighted Conformal Prediction

In the last decade, kilometre-scale interferometric gravitational-wave detectors have observed hundreds of compact binary mergers, the majority of which are binary black holes. However, the data are noise-dominated, and multiple independent search algorithms (pipelines) are used to enhance sensitivity and improve robustness. Rather than the standard approach of selecting the most significant pipeline output, we combine the outputs from all pipelines using a conformal prediction-based framework to provide statistically rigorous confidence estimates for candidate events. While combining pipelines improves sensitivity and ranking robustness, it requires a principled statistical framework that remains valid as data properties evolve across observing runs. A key challenge is distribution shifts between simulated datasets used for training and calibration and the real, unlabelled, observations used for testing, which can invalidate coverage guarantees and bias confidence estimates. In this work, we address this challenge by incorporating likelihood-ratio reweighting into our conformal prediction framework to account for covariate shift. Using mock datasets containing simulated signals, we demonstrate that weighted conformal prediction restores well-calibrated coverage under covariate shift and increases the confidence of events near the detection threshold, recovering true signals that would otherwise be missed.
