arXiv:2408.04495v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Following the work of H. Ellis, we study warp drives in the gravitational field of a Schwarzschild black hole. We find that as long as the warp drive crosses the black hole horizon at a subluminal speed, the horizon would be effectively absent inside the warp bubble. Moreover, we discover that the black hole’s gravitational field can alleviate the violations of the weak energy condition (WEC) and the null energy condition (NEC) and therefore decrease the amount of negative energy required to sustain a warp drive, which may be instrumental for creating microscopic warp drives in lab experiments. We also consider the thermodynamics of a warp bubble interacting with a black hole and point out some paradoxes that may indicate a gap in our understanding of them from the thermodynamic point of view.

arXiv:2408.04483v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a commentary on the famous 1964 paper of John Bell that rules out the entire class of underlying hidden variable theories for quantum mechanics that are local.

Nature Physics, Published online: 08 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02605-xAn atom interferometer now maintains a spatial superposition state for 70 seconds, compared to few seconds in freely falling systems. This could improve measurements of the strength of gravitational fields and quantum gravity studies.

A simple minimalist argument is given for why some correlations between quantum systems boggle our classical intuition. The argument relies on two elementary physical assumptions, and recovers the standard experimentally testable Bell inequality in a form that applies equally well to correlations be…

The observables of a noisy quantum system can be estimated by appropriately filtering the records of their continuous measurement. Such filtering is relevant for state estimation, and if the filter is causal, also relevant for measurement-based feedback control. It is therefore imperative that a pai…
