1. Gravitational Decoherence in Macroscopic Quantum Systems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysikAbstract : The problem of how quantum mechanics gives rise to classicality has been debated for more than a century. A commonly proposed solution is decoherence, i.e. the gradual decay of superpositions in open quantum systems due to their inevitable interaction with their environment. READ MORE

2. The Reissner-Nordström metric
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysikAbstract : A brief review of special and general relativity including some classical electrodynamics is given. We then present a detailed derivation of the Reissner-Nordström metric. The derivation is done by solving the Einstein-Maxwell equations for a spherically symmetric electrically charged body. The physics of this spacetime is then studied. READ MORE
