The process of radiation by a uniformly accelerated charge, although both fundamental and elementary, has long been a subject of controversy. The conceptual issues are intensified when gravity is brought into the picture, and they have come even more to the fore now that a related effect in quantum theory (named after Unruh), which usually deals with a neutral system with internal degrees…
Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetimes (QFTCS) makes sound predictions in situations involving quantum fields in the presence of strong (classical) gravitational fields. In the last few years, it has been proven extremely fruitful to analyze QFTCS from the perspective of information theory. Thus, in this project, we intend to study the interplay between QFTCS and quantum information th…
Quantum Field Theory in Curved Space-Times (TQCEC) allows us to make sound predictions in situations involving quantum fields in the presence of strong (classical) gravitational fields. We intend to focus mainly on two fronts in which it has been proven effective: (1) study its interface with quantum information theory to not only find new low-energy quantum gravity effects (i.e. for ene…
Throughout the last decade there has been a rising interest in the infrared structure of gravity and gauge theory. This was partially motivated by the unforeseen correspondences between many different results from the 1960s and 1970s-namely asymptotic symmetries, soft theorems, and memory effects-but has found many applications in theoretical high-energy physics, mathematical physics, and…
The connection between acceleration and radiation and its relationship with the equivalence principle has intrigued the scientific community for decades. More recently, this question has been investigated from the perspective of quantum mechanics within the framework of quantum field theory in curved spacetimes and found what appears to be a striking connection between the bremsstrahlung …
The grand goal behind this thesis consists in going a step forward concerning Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetimes (QFTCS). QFTCS is an approach devised to unveil quantum-field-theoretical effects in classical spacetimes. This is quite reliable provided we stay below the Planck scale. Yet, the backreaction of the quantum fields on the spacetime itself is much more difficult to assess…
This is a six-month Scientific Initiation project that is linked to the Center for Natural and Human Sciences of the Federal University (UFABC). Its main goal is to introduce the student to quantum information theory in relativistic contexts, with particular emphasis on the analysis of the dynamics of correlations between two uniformly accelerated qubits. We will be particularly intere…
While Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetimes has solid predictions in situations involving intense (classical) gravitational fields, the so-called Functional Renormalization Group Equation (FRGE) allow us to study non-perturbative aspects of quantum field theories. When applied to the gravitational field itself, it suggests the existence of a non-trivial ultraviolet fixed point in theo…
Ever since the works of Rohrlich and Boulware it was realized that radiation is not a covariant concept. They found that uniformly accelerated electric charges should not emit radiation with respect to co-accelerated observers. Since then, the connection between acceleration and radiation and their relation to the equivalence principle keeps puzzling the community. More recently, this …

The goal of this project is to go a step forward in our understanding of the implications of quantum theory for spacetime and gravity, exploring its low-energy (i.e. far below Planck scale) effects beyond the scope of Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetimes (QFTCS). In the past decade, significant progress has been made in this direction by exploring the effects of spacetime as a mediat…
