Nonadditive quantum gravitational interaction for three nonpointlike objects
arXiv:2201.06200 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.105.026028
Abstract
We explore the nonadditive three-body quantum gravitational quadrupole interaction among three nonpointlike objects in their ground states in the framework of linearized quantum gravity and find that the interaction exhibits a distance behavior of in the near regime where the interobject distances are small compared with the characteristic transition wavelength of the objects, and in the far regime where the distances are larger than the characteristic transition wavelength, where denotes the distance between any two objects except object . Compared to the additive quantum gravitational interaction between two ground-state objects in vacuum which is always attractive both in the near and far regimes, the nonadditive interaction among three ground-state objects can be either attractive or repulsive depending on the geometrical configuration of these objects. That is, in principle, the attractive or repulsive properties of the nonadditive three-body quantum gravitational interaction can be manipulated by changing the geometrical arrangement of the objects.
