[DPS Seminar] Debraj Roy (SN Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata) -- Aspects of gravity and curvature from flat spacetime |
Date: |
Wednesday, Apr 17, 2013 |
Time: |
2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. |
Venue: |
LH 1, JC Bose |
Details: |
I will discuss how by playing with ideas inspired by the principle of equivalence, we can understand gravity both as a gauge theory of the Poincare group (Poincare gauge theory) and as a study of physics from accelerated frames (Unruh effect). I present new perspectives in both areas and try to outline interesting future prospects. |
