Aspects of Graviton Detection: Graviton Emission and Absorption by Atomic Hydrogen

arXiv:gr-qc/0605052 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/23/20/006

Abstract

Graviton absorption cross sections and emission rates for hydrogen are calculated by both semi-classical and field theoretic methods. We point out several mistakes in the literature concerning spontaneous emission of gravitons and related phenomena, some of which are due to a subtle issue concerning gauge invariance of the linearized interaction Hamiltonian.
