8 Quantum entanglement
9 Quantum entanglement Black holes
10 Black Holes Objects so dense that light is gravitationally bound to them. In Einstein s theory, the region inside the black hole horizon is disconnected from the rest of the universe. Horizon radius R = 2GM c 2
11 On September 14, 2015, LIGO detected the merger of two black holes, each weighing about 30 solar masses, with radii of about 100 km, 1.3 billion light years away 0.1 seconds later!
12 LIGO September 14, 2015
13 Black Holes + Quantum theory Around 1974, Bekenstein and Hawking showed that the application of the quantum theory across a black hole horizon led to many astonishing conclusions
14 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon _
15 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon _ Black hole horizon
16 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon _ Black hole horizon
17 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon There is long-range quantum entanglement between the inside and outside of a black hole Black hole horizon
18 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon Hawking used this to show that black hole horizons have an entropy and a temperature (because to an outside observer, the state of the electron inside the black hole is an unknown) Black hole horizon
19 Quantum Entanglement across a black hole horizon The Hawking temperature k B T H = ~2 8 M`2P and the Bekenstein-Hawking (BH) black hole entropy S BH k B = A 4`2P where `P = p ~G/c 3 in the Planck length, and A is the surface area of the black hole. Note the entropy is proportional to the surface area rather than the volume. Black hole horizon
20 LIGO September 14, 2015 The Hawking temperature, T H influences the radiation from the black hole at the very last stages of the ring-down (not observed so far). The ring-down (approach to thermal equilibrium) happens very rapidly in a time ~ = 8 GM k B T H c 3 8 milliseconds.
21 Quantum entanglement Black holes Black holes have an entropy and a temperature, T H. The entropy is proportional to their surface area. They relax to thermal equilibrium in a time ~/(k B T H ).

43 Almost all many-electron systems are described by the quasiparticle concept: a quasiparticle is an excited lump in the many-electron state which responds just like an ordinary particle. R.D. Mattuck
44 Almost all many-electron systems are described by the quasiparticle concept: a quasiparticle is an excited lump in the many-electron state which responds just like an ordinary particle. Quasiparticles are additive excitations: The low-lying excitations of the many-body system can be identified as a set {n } of quasiparticles with energy " E = P n " + P, F n n +...
45 Almost all many-electron systems are described by the quasiparticle concept: a quasiparticle is an excited lump in the many-electron state which responds just like an ordinary particle. Quasiparticles eventually collide with each other. Such collisions eventually leads to thermal equilibration in a chaotic quantum state, but the equilibration takes a long time. In a Fermi liquid, this time is of order ~E F /(k B T ) 2 as T! 0, where E F is the Fermi energy.
46 Quantum matter without quasiparticles The complex quantum entanglement in the strange metal does not allow for any quasiparticle excitations.
47 Quantum matter without quasiparticles The complex quantum entanglement in the strange metal does not allow for any quasiparticle excitations. Systems without quasiparticles, like the strange metal, reach quantum chaos much more quickly than those with quasiparticles. There is an lower bound on the phase coherence time ( ' ), and the time to many-body quantum chaos ( L ) in all many-body quantum systems as T! 0: ' C ~ k B T ~ L 2 k B T (SS, 1999) (Maldacena, Shenker, Stanford, 2015) So e.g. we cannot have ' ~/ p Jk B T where J is a microscopic coupling. In the strange metal the inequalities become equalities as T! 0, and the time ~/(k B T ) influences numerous observables.
