Accelerating systems as probes of Lorentz violation
Quentin G. Bailey, Nils A. Nilsson, Sawyer J. Star
We investigate the Fulling-Davies-Unruh effect in a local Lorentz-violating effective field theory, focusing on the quantum-field response of accelerated detectors. We canonically…
New Directions in Gravity Searches for Spacetime-Symmetry breaking
Quentin G. Bailey
In this talk, we review recent results in testing spacetime symmetries in gravitational physics. Topics discussed include new signals for hypothetical Lorentz and diffeomorphism sy…
Bumblebee gravity: spherically-symmetric solutions away from the potential minimum
Quentin G. Bailey, Hailey S. Murray, Dario T. Walter-Cardona
In this work, we study a vector model of spontaneous spacetime-symmetry breaking coupled to gravity: the bumblebee model. The primary focus is on static spherically symmetric solut…
Measurement-induced entanglement entropy of gravitational wave detections
Preston Jones, Quentin G. Bailey, Andri Gretarsson +1
Research on the projective measurement of gravitons increasingly supports Dysons conclusions that the detection of single gravitons is not physically possible. It is therefore prud…
You shall not pass! -- explicit diffeomorphism violation "no-go" constraints and discontinuities
Quentin G. Bailey, Kellie O'Neal-Ault, Nils A. Nilsson
This paper collects several results in the study of the explicit symmetry-breaking limit of the effective-field theory (EFT) description of diffeomorphism and local Lorentz-symmetr…
Classical radiation fields for scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational waves with spacetime-symmetry breaking
Quentin G. Bailey, Alexander S. Gard, Nils A. Nilsson +2
An effective field theory framework is used to investigate some Lorentz-violating effects on the generation of electromagnetic and gravitational waves, complementing previous work…
