Eugenio Bianchi

Eugenio Bianchi is an Italian theoretical physicist and assistant professor at the Pennsylvania State University who works on loop quantum gravity and black hole thermodynamics. He has derived the Bekenstein-Hawking formula S=A/4 for the entropy of non-extremal black holes from loop quantum gravity,[1][2] for all values of the Immirzi parameter.
