Measuring the Acceleration-Dependent Temperature of the Minkowski Vacuum

Daine L. Danielson, Netta Engelhardt, Lindley A. Winslow

Relativistic quantum field theory is the structure on which the Standard Model and beyond-Standard Model physics are built. One of its most striking predictions is the Unruh effect…

A Quantum Gravitational Mechanism for Isotropization of de Sitter Cosmologies

Stephon Alexander, Bruno Alexandre, Daine L. Danielson +1

Today, the observable cosmos exhibits a remarkable degree of isotropy and plausibly began in a nearly isotropic initial state. The properties of the Lorentzian Chern-Simons-Kodama…

Quantum Advantage for Sensing Properties of Classical Fields

Jordan Cotler, Daine L. Danielson, Ishaan Kannan

Modern precision experiments often probe unknown classical fields with bosonic sensors in quantum-noise-limited regimes where vacuum fluctuations limit conventional readout. We int…

Building an AI-native Research Ecosystem for Experimental Particle Physics: A Community Vision

Thea Klaeboe Aarrestad, Alaa Abdelhamid, Haider Abidi +457

Experimental particle physics seeks to understand the universe by probing its fundamental particles and forces and exploring how they govern the large-scale processes that shape co…

Horizons and Soft Quantum Information

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran

It was recently shown that black holes decohere any quantum superpositions in their vicinity. This decoherence is mediated by soft radiation through the horizon, and can be underst…

How to Minimize the Decoherence Caused by Black Holes

Daine L. Danielson, Jonah Kudler-Flam, Gautam Satishchandran +1

We consider an experimentalist, Alice, who creates a quantum superposition of a charged or massive body outside of a black hole (or, more generally, in the presence of a Killing ho…

Local Description of Decoherence of Quantum Superpositions by Black Holes and Other Bodies

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald

It was previously shown that if an experimenter, Alice, puts a massive or charged body in a quantum spatial superposition, then the presence of a black hole (or more generally any…

Killing Horizons Decohere Quantum Superpositions

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald

We recently showed that if a massive (or charged) body is put in a quantum spatial superposition, the mere presence of a black hole in its vicinity will eventually decohere the sup…

Measurement of the Neutron Cross Section on Argon Between 95 and 720 MeV

S. Martynenko, B. Bhandari, J. Bian +72

We report an extended measurement of the neutron cross section on argon in the energy range of 95-720 MeV. The measurement was obtained with a 4.3-hour exposure of the Mini-CAPTAIN…

Black Holes Decohere Quantum Superpositions

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald

We show that if a massive body is put in a quantum superposition of spatially separated states, the mere presence of a black hole in the vicinity of the body will eventually destro…

A Call to Arms Control: Synergies between Nonproliferation Applications of Neutrino Detectors and Large-Scale Fundamental Neutrino Physics Experiments

T. Akindele, T. Anderson, E. Anderssen +162

The High Energy Physics community can benefit from a natural synergy in research activities into next-generation large-scale water and scintillator neutrino detectors, now being st…

Gravitationally Mediated Entanglement: Newtonian Field vs. Gravitons

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald

We argue that if the Newtonian gravitational field of a body can mediate entanglement with another body, then it should also be possible for the body producing the Newtonian field…

Blázquez-Salcedo-Knoll-Radu Wormholes Are Not Solutions to the Einstein-Dirac-Maxwell Equations

Daine L. Danielson, Gautam Satishchandran, Robert M. Wald +1

Recently, Blázquez-Salcedo, Knoll, and Radu (BSKR) have given a class of static, spherically symmetric, traversable wormhole spacetimes with Dirac and Maxwell fields. The BSKR worm…

The Mini-CAPTAIN Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber

CAPTAIN Collaboration, C. E. Taylor, B. Bhandari +73

This manuscript describes the commissioning of the Mini-CAPTAIN liquid argon detector in a neutron beam at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE), which led to a first meas…

First Measurement of the Total Neutron Cross Section on Argon Between 100 and 800 MeV

B. Bhandari, J. Bian, K. Bilton +73

We report the first measurement of the neutron cross section on argon in the energy range of 100-800 MeV. The measurement was obtained with a 4.3-hour exposure of the Mini-CAPTAIN…

Reactor Neutrino Spectral Distortions Play Little Role in Mass Hierarchy Experiments

D. L. Danielson, A. C. Hayes, G. T. Garvey

The Coulomb enhancement of low energy electrons in nuclear beta decay generates sharp cutoffs in the accompanying antineutrino spectrum at the beta decay endpoint energies. It has…
