Single Killing Vector Gauss-Bonnet Boson Stars and Single Killing Vector Hairy Black Holes in D>5 Odd Dimensions
Henderson, Laura (University of Waterloo, 2014-05-21)I construct anti-de Sitter boson stars in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity coupled to a (D-1)/(2)-tuplet of complex massless scalar field both perturbativelyand numerically in D=5,7,9,11 dimensions. Due to the choice of ... -
What can detectors detect?
Henderson, Laura (University of Waterloo, 2021-01-29)This thesis is focused on using a pair of Unruh-DeWitt detectors, which interact locally with a quantum field, to gain information about properties of the field and the underlying spacetime. First, we consider a massless ...
