The innovative black hole project, exploring astrophysics and quantum gravity and expected to make significant contributions to theoretical physics, being conducted in collaboration between Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) and Sabancı University, has secured three years of funding through the TÜBİTAK 2515-Cost R&D program.
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ali Övgün from EMU Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Department of Physics, will contribute to the project as an international researcher, while it will be led by Dr. Beyhan Puliçe from Sabancı University’s Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences. The project draws attention for addressing one of the most captivating topics in contemporary science.
The project titled “Geometric and Thermodynamic Analysis of Magnetically Charged Black Holes within the Symmergent Gravity Framework” has been approved under the TÜBİTAK 2515 – COST R&D Support Program, within the scope of COST Action CA23115 – Relativistic Quantum Information (RQI).
The project aims to examine the complex structure of black holes using the “Symmergent Gravity” model, one of the modern physics theories developed to understand the fundamental building blocks of the universe and the force of gravity. Within this theoretical framework, the researchers will analyse the geometric characteristics and thermodynamic behaviours of black holes that possess a magnetic charge.
This important three-year international collaboration is supported by the COST program, which seeks to enhance Tükiye’s integration into the European research area in the field of fundamental sciences. The project is expected to provide significant scientific contributions to understanding the relationship between gravity and quantum physics.
