Holographic Principle Research Paper

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on seeking resources for a research paper on the holographic principle. Participants recommend several key texts, including Lee Smolin's "Three Roads to Quantum Gravity," which elaborates on the concept of space as a 2D surface that processes information similarly to a screen. Leonard Susskind's "The Black Hole War" is also suggested as a valuable reference. Additional academic papers, such as one from the LANL repository, are mentioned as potential sources. Overall, the thread emphasizes the complexity and depth of the holographic principle in theoretical physics.

Hello, I am doing a research paper for a final and I chose the holographic principle as my topic. Does anyone have any good sources, or information pertaining to this? Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

P.S.- I have looked at some of the first links on google, and wikipedia
 
Space news on Phys.org
Of the top of my head, there are many terms used when referring to a a 2d surface.
Check out the thread " We are in a Schwarzschild black hole--T or F? "
Even papers talking about confinement use the 2d surface.
I'm sure that others will give you more specific examples.

I don't know if I'm too late to add anything to help you with your research paper but I recommend Lee Smolin's "Three Roads to Quantum Gravity" as a good read. He goes into great detail about the holographic universe principle.

Essentially he explains it by saying that each portion of space, measured by a square of something like 2 Planck lengths per side where each square acts like a screen on a TV. He says that this screen only shows what information that is passed through it and is remitted. But he also says that the screen can only show so much information at a time and that excess information that goes in is dispersed to other Planck squares. Its obviously a lot more complicated than that as he has almost two chapters on it. Hope I could be of help, good luck with your paper.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination_(cosmology) Was a matter density right after the decoupling low enough to consider the vacuum as the actual vacuum, and not the medium through which the light propagates with the speed lower than ##({\epsilon_0\mu_0})^{-1/2}##? I'm asking this in context of the calculation of the observable universe radius, where the time integral of the inverse of the scale factor is multiplied by the constant speed of light ##c##.
The formal paper is here. The Rutgers University news has published a story about an image being closely examined at their New Brunswick campus. Here is an excerpt: Computer modeling of the gravitational lens by Keeton and Eid showed that the four visible foreground galaxies causing the gravitational bending couldn’t explain the details of the five-image pattern. Only with the addition of a large, invisible mass, in this case, a dark matter halo, could the model match the observations...
Hi, I’m pretty new to cosmology and I’m trying to get my head around the Big Bang and the potential infinite extent of the universe as a whole. There’s lots of misleading info out there but this forum and a few others have helped me and I just wanted to check I have the right idea. The Big Bang was the creation of space and time. At this instant t=0 space was infinite in size but the scale factor was zero. I’m picturing it (hopefully correctly) like an excel spreadsheet with infinite...
