Title

Testable predictions from loop quantum gravity in evaporating microscopic black holes
Co-authors

Abstract

The (discrete) horizon area spectrum of a black hole and the degeneracy associated to each of its eigenstates are known in loop quantum gravity to a high degree of detail, in particular, for microscopic (Planck size) black holes. We explore the possibility that the non-trivial structure of this spectrum may produce observable signatures on Hawking radiation. We use a Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate the evaporation and carry on the statistical analysis to determine whether the produced signatures would be strong enough to be discriminated, were these microscopic black holes to be observed in the future.
