Parameter estimation of wormholes beyond the Heisenberg limit
arXiv:1811.02395 · doi:10.3390/universe4110115
Abstract
We propose to exploit the quantum properties of nonlinear media to estimate the parameters of massless wormholes. The spacetime curvature produces a change in length with respect to Minkowski spacetime that can be estimated in principle with an interferometer. We use quantum metrology techniques to show that the sensitivity is improved with nonlinear media and propose a nonlinear Mach-Zehnder interferometer to estimate the parameters of massless wormholes that scales beyond the Heisenberg limit.
