Kristina Giesel talk Thursday

On Thursday 7 September Kristina Giesel gives a seminar talk on topic TBA.

I was in a rush earlier and screwed up. I confused Kristina Giesel with someone else and wrote the wrong first name.

Now I have to start at square one with this.

All I know about K. Giesel is her collaboration with TT on a halfdozen papers
http://arxiv.org/find/gr-qc/1/au:+Giesel_K/0/1/0/all/0/1

1. gr-qc/0607101 [abs, ps, pdf, other] :
Title: Algebraic Quantum Gravity (AQG) III. Semiclassical Perturbation Theory

Subj-class: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology; Mathematical Physics

2. gr-qc/0607100 [abs, ps, pdf, other] :

4. gr-qc/0507037 [abs, ps, pdf, other] :
Title: Consistency Check on Volume and Triad Operator Quantisation in Loop Quantum Gravity II

5. gr-qc/0507036 [abs, ps, pdf, other] :
Title: Consistency Check on Volume and Triad Operator Quantisation in Loop Quantum Gravity I
Authors: Kristina Giesel, Thomas Thiemann
Comments: 21 pages, 5 figures

so I guess the upcoming seminar talk at Perimeter is part of the ongoing
Thiemannssaga. A heroic or semiheroic story like the Icelandic Gislasaga (which has parts where one feels a bit faint).
Actually the old story is a pretty good one. We'll see how the modern story turns out.

Thread 'LQG Legend Writes Paper Claiming GR Explains Dark Matter Phenomena'
A new group of investigators are attempting something similar to Deur's work, which seeks to explain dark matter phenomena with general relativity corrections to Newtonian gravity is systems like galaxies. Deur's most similar publication to this one along these lines was: One thing that makes this new paper notable is that the corresponding author is Giorgio Immirzi, the person after whom the somewhat mysterious Immirzi parameter of Loop Quantum Gravity is named. I will be reviewing the...
I seem to notice a buildup of papers like this: Detecting single gravitons with quantum sensing. (OK, old one.) Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion Is this akin to “we’re soon gonna put string theory to the test”, or are these legit? Mind, I’m not expecting anyone to read the papers and explain them to me, but if one of you educated people already have an opinion I’d like to hear it. If not please ignore me. EDIT: I strongly suspect it’s bunk but...
