In this paper we consider non-relativistic matter-wave interferometer coupled with a quantum graviton bath $mathord{-}$ and discuss the loss of coherence in the matter sector due to the matter-graviton vertex. First of all, such a process does not lead to any entanglement, but nonetheless the on-shell scattering diagram can lead to loss of coherence as we will show. Importantly, we will show that graviton emission is the only one-vertex Feynman-diagram $simsqrt{G}$ which is consistent with the conservation of energy and momentum at the dominant order $simmathcal{O}(c^{-2})$. We will find that the resulting dephasing is extremely mild and hardly places any constraints on matter-wave interferometers in the mesoscopic regime. In particular, the show that the corresponding loss of coherence in the recently proposed experiment which would test quantum aspects of graviton $mathord{-}$ via entanglement of two matter-wave interferometers $mathord{-}$ is completely negligible.

The gravitational waveforms in the ghost-free bigravity theory exhibit deviations from those in general relativity. The main difference is caused by graviton oscillations in the bigravity theory. We investigate the prospects for the detection of the
corrections to gravitational waveforms from coalescing compact binaries due to graviton oscillations and for constraining bigravity parameters with the gravitational wave observations. We consider the bigravity model discussed by the De Felice-Nakamura-Tanaka subset of the bigravity model, and the phenomenological model in which the bigravity parameters are treated as independent variables. In both models, the bigravity waveform shows strong amplitude modulation, and there can be a characteristic frequency of the largest peak of the amplitude, which depends on the bigravity parameters. We show that there is a detectable region of the bigravity parameters for the advanced ground-based laser interferometers, such as Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo, and KAGRA. This region corresponds to the effective graviton mass of $mu geq 10^{-17}~{rm cm}^{-1}$ for $tilde{c}-1 geq 10^{-19}$ in the phenomenological model, while $mu geq 10^{-16.5}~{rm cm}^{-1}$ for $kappaxi_c^2 geq 10^{0.5}$ in the De Felice-Nakamura-Tanaka subset of the bigravity model, respectively, where $tilde{c}$ is the propagation speed of the massive graviton and $kappaxi_c^2$ corresponds to the corrections to the gravitational constant in general relativity. These regions are not excluded by existing solar system tests. We also show that, in the case of $1.4-1.4M_{rm sun}$ binaries at the distance of $200~{rm Mpc}$, $logmu^2$ is determined with an accuracy of ${cal O}$(0.1)% at the 1$sigma$ level for a fiducial model with $mu^2=10^{-33}~{rm cm}^{-2}$ in the case of the phenomenological model.
Although time is one of the fundamental notions in physics, it does not have a unique description. In quantum theory time is a parameter ordering the succession of the probability amplitudes of a quantum system, while according to relativity theory e
ach system experiences in general a different proper time, depending on the systems world line, due to time to time dilation. It is therefore of fundamental interest to test the notion of time in the regime where both quantum and relativistic effects play a role, for example, when different amplitudes of a single quantum clock experience different magnitudes of time dilation. Here we propose a realization of such an experiment with a single electron in a Penning trap. The clock can be implemented in the electronic spin precession and its time dilation then depends on the radial (cyclotron) state of the electron. We show that coherent manipulation and detection of the electron can be achieved already with present day technology. A single electron in a Penning trap is a technologically ready platform where the notion of time can be probed in a hitherto untested regime, where it requires a relativistic as well as quantum description.
A graviton laser works, in principle, by the stimulated emission of coherent gravitons from a lasing medium. For significant amplification, we must have a very long path length and/or very high densities. Black holes and the existence of weakly inter
acting sub-eV dark matter particles (WISPs) solve both of these obstacles. Orbiting trajectories for massless particles around black holes are well understood cite{mtw} and allow for arbitrarily long graviton path lengths. Superradiance from Kerr black holes of WISPs can provide the sufficiently high density cite{ABH}. This suggests that black holes can act as efficient graviton lasers. Thus directed graviton laser beams have been emitted since the beginning of the universe and give rise to new sources of gravitational wave signals. To be in the path of particularly harmfully amplified graviton death rays will not be pleasant.
Several km-scale gravitational-wave detectors have been constructed world wide. These instruments combine a number of advanced technologies to push the limits of precision length measurement. The core devices are laser interferometers of a new kind;
developed from the classical Michelson topology these interferometers integrate additional optical elements, which significantly change the properties of the optical system. Much of the design and analysis of these laser interferometers can be performed using well-known classical optical techniques; however, the complex optical layouts provide a new challenge. In this review we give a textbook-style introduction to the optical science required for the understanding of modern gravitational wave detectors, as well as other high-precision laser interferometers. In addition, we provide a number of examples for a freely available interferometer simulation software and encourage the reader to use these examples to gain hands-on experience with the discussed optical methods.
Atom-interferometer gravitational-wave (GW) observatory, as a new design of ground-based GW detector for the near future, is sensitive at a relatively low frequency for GW observations. Taking the proposed atom interferometer Zhaoshan Long-baseline A
tom Interferometer Gravitation Antenna (ZAIGA), and its illustrative upgrade (Z+) as examples, we investigate how the atom interferometer will complement ground-based laser interferometers in testing the gravitational dipole radiation from binary neutron star (BNS) mergers. A test of such kind is important for a better understanding of the strong equivalence principle laying at the heart of Einsteins general relativity. To obtain a statistically sound result, we sample BNS systems according to their merger rate and population, from which we study the expected bounds on the parameterized dipole radiation parameter $B$. Extracting BNS parameters and the dipole radiation from the combination of ground-based laser interferometers and the atom-interferometer ZAIGA/Z+, we are entitled to obtain tighter bounds on $B$ by a few times to a few orders of magnitude, compared to ground-based laser interferometers alone, ultimately reaching the levels of $|B| lesssim 10^{-9}$ (with ZAIGA) and $|B| lesssim 10^{-10}$ (with Z+).
