The problems of quantum gravity: from high-energy scattering to black holes and cosmology
Speaker(s): Steve Giddings
Abstract: Much work on quantum gravity has focussed on short-distance problems such as non-renormalizability and singularities. However, quantization of gravity raises important long-distance issues, which may be more important guides to the conceptual advances required. These include the problems of black ho... read more

Black hole production at high energies
Speaker(s): Steve Giddings
Abstract: I will survey some of the physics of TeV-scale black hole production, as well as outstanding issues. I will also discuss some of the conceptual issues surrounding high-energy black hole production.
