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.

Abstract The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has significantly advanced our ability to study black holes, achieving unprecedented spatial resolution and revealing horizon-scale structures. Notably, these observations feature a distinctive dark shadow—primarily arising from faint jet emissions—surrounded by a bright photon ring. Anticipated upgrades of the EHT promise substantial improvements in dynamic range, enabling deeper exploration of low-background regions, particularly the inner shadow...
what is the current status of the field for quantum cosmology, are there any observations that support any theory of quantum cosmology? is it just cosmology during the Planck era or does it extend past the Planck era. what are the leading candidates into research into quantum cosmology and which physics departments research it? how much respect does loop quantum cosmology has compared to string cosmology with actual cosmologists?
