Testing the equivalence principle through freely falling quantum objects
arXiv:quant-ph/9612039 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.55.455
Abstract
Free fall in a uniform gravitational field is revisited in the case of quantum states with and without classical analogue. The interplay between kinematics and dynamics in the evolution of a falling quantum test particle is discussed allowing for a better understanding of the equivalence principle at the operational level.
