Quantum treatment of Verlinde’s entropic force conjecture

A. Plastino, M.C. Rocca and G.L. Ferri

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2018, vol. 511, issue C, 139-142

Abstract: Verlinde conjectured that gravitation is an emergent entropic force. This surprising conjecture was proved in Plastino and Rocca (2018) within a purely classical context. Here, we appeal to a quantum environment to deal with the conjecture in the case of bosons and consider also the classical limit of quantum mechanics (QM).
