Probing Fuzzballs with Particles, Waves and Strings
We probe D1D5 micro-state geometries with massless particles, waves and
strings. To this end, we study geodetic motion, Klein-Gordon equation and
string scattering in the resulting gravitational background. Due to the reduced
rotational symmetry, even in the simple case of a circular fuzzball, the system
cannot be integrated elementarily. Yet, for motion in the plane of the string
profile or in the orthogonal plane to it, one can compute the deflection angle
or the phase shift and identify the critical impact parameter, at which even a
massless probe is captured by the fuzzball if its internal momentum is properly
tuned. We find agreement among the three approaches, thus giving further
support to the fuzzball proposal at the dynamical level.Comment: 35 pages. Extended and improved discussions on the integrability of
the geodetic equations and on the critical impact parameter
EEMCS final report for the causal modeling for air transport safety (CATS) project
This document reports on the work realized by the DIAM in relation to the completion of the CATS model as presented in Figure 1.6 and tries to explain some of the steps taken for its completion. The project spans over a period of time of three years. Intermediate reports have been presented throughout the project’s progress. These are presented in Appendix 1. In this report the continuous‐discrete distribution‐free BBNs are briefly discussed. The human reliability models developed for dealing with dependence in the model variables are described and the software application UniNet is presente
