Graviton detection and the quantization of gravity

D Carney, V Domcke, NL Rodd - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We revisit a question asked by Dyson:“Is a graviton detectable?” We demonstrate that in
both Dyson's original sense and in a more modern measurement-theoretic sense, it is …

The primordial black holes that disappeared: connections to dark matter and MHz-GHz gravitational Waves

TC Gehrman, BSE Haghi, K Sinha… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
In the post-LIGO era, there has been a lot of focus on primordial black holes (PBHs) heavier
than∼ 10 15 g as potential dark matter (DM) candidates. We point out that the branch of the …

Cavity detection of gravitational waves: Where do we stand?

C Gatti, L Visinelli, M Zantedeschi - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
High-frequency gravitational waves (HFGWs) are predicted in various exotic scenarios
involving both cosmological and astrophysical sources. These elusive signals have recently …

High-frequency gravitational wave detection via optical frequency modulation

T Bringmann, V Domcke, E Fuchs, J Kopp - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
High frequency gravitational waves can be detected by observing the frequency modulation
they impart on photons. We discuss fundamental limitations to this method related to the fact …

Bubble-assisted leptogenesis

EJ Chun, TP Dutka, TH Jung, X Nagels… - Journal of High Energy …, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We explore the possibility of embedding thermal leptogenesis within a first-order
phase transition (FOPT) such that RHNs remain massless until a FOPT arises. Their sudden …

Probing reheating with graviton bremsstrahlung

N Bernal, S Cléry, Y Mambrini… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the stochastic gravitational wave (GW) spectrum resulting from graviton
bremsstrahlung during inflationary reheating. We focus on an inflaton ϕ oscillating around a …

Symmetries and selection rules: Optimising axion haloscopes for gravitational wave searches

V Domcke, C Garcia-Cely, SM Lee, NL Rodd - Journal of High Energy …, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In the presence of electromagnetic fields, both axions and gravitational waves
(GWs) induce oscillating magnetic fields: a potentially detectable fingerprint of their …

Limits on high-frequency gravitational waves in planetary magnetospheres

T Liu, J Ren, C Zhang - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
High-frequency gravitational waves (HFGWs) carry a wealth of information on the early
Universe with a tiny comoving horizon and astronomical objects of small scale but with …

This document presents a summary of the 2023 Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom
Interferometry Workshop hosted by CERN. The workshop brought together experts from …

Searching for high-frequency gravitational waves with phonons

Y Kahn, J Schütte-Engel, T Trickle - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
The gravitational wave (GW) spectrum at frequencies above a kHz is a largely unexplored
frontier. We show that detectors with sensitivity to single-phonon excitations in crystal targets …
