Minimal noise in non-quantized gravity

Giuseppe Fabiano, Tomohiro Fujita, Akira Matsumura +1

An elementary prediction of the quantization of the gravitational field is that the Newtonian interaction can entangle pairs of massive objects. Conversely, in models of gravity in…

Three-dimensional squeezing of optically levitated nanospheres

Giacomo Marocco, David C. Moore, Daniel Carney

We propose a protocol to measure impulses beyond the standard quantum limit. The protocol reduces noise in all three spatial dimensions and consists of squeezing a mechanical syste…

On the quantum mechanics of entropic forces

Daniel Carney, Manthos Karydas, Thilo Scharnhorst +2

It was conjectured thirty years ago that gravity could arise from the entropic re-arrangement of information. In this paper, we offer a set of microscopic quantum models which real…

Impulse measurements enhanced with squeezed readout light

Tsai-Chen Lee, Jacob L. Beckey, Giacomo Marocco +1

We quantify how squeezed light can reduce quantum measurement noise to levels below the standard quantum limit in impulse measurements with mechanical detectors. The broadband natu…

Classical-quantum scattering

Daniel Carney, Akira Matsumura

We analyze the framework recently proposed by Oppenheim et al. to model relativistic quantum fields coupled to relativistic, classical, stochastic fields (in particular, as a model…

Response of interferometers to the vacuum of quantum gravity

Daniel Carney, Manthos Karydas, Allic Sivaramakrishnan

It has recently been suggested that exotic quantum gravity effects could lead to large vacuum fluctuations, potentially observable with realistic detectors. Experiments are current…

Superconducting Levitated Detector of Gravitational Waves

Daniel Carney, Gerard Higgins, Giacomo Marocco +1

A magnetically levitated mass couples to gravity and can act as an effective gravitational wave detector. We show that a superconducting sphere levitated in a quadrupolar magnetic…

Comments on graviton detection

Daniel Carney

It is possible to make a detector which clicks after absorbing a single graviton. Similarly, it is possible to make a gravitational wave detector which can see the quantum noise in…
