Nonlocality amplifies echoes
arXiv:1906.03624 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.100.104059
Abstract
In this paper we will provide smoking-gun signatures of nonlocal interactions while studying reflection and transmission of waves bouncing through two Dirac delta potentials. In particular, we will show that the transmission of waves is less damped compared to the local case, due to the fact that nonlocality weakens the interaction. As a consequence the echoes are amplified. These signatures can be potentially detectable in the context of gravitational waves, where two Dirac delta potentials can mimic the two potential barriers at the surface and at the photon sphere of an ultra compact object, or, at the two photon spheres of a wormhole, experiencing nonlocal interactions.
