Entanglement Witness for the Weak Equivalence Principle [PDF]
Entropy, 2023 The Einstein equivalence principle is based on the equality of gravitational and inertial mass, which has led to the universality of a free-fall concept.

Equivalence Principle in Classical and Quantum Gravity
Universe, 2022 We give a general overview of various flavours of the equivalence principle in classical and quantum physics, with special emphasis on the so-called weak equivalence principle, and contrast its validity in mechanics versus field theory.

Gene-environment equivalence: The fundamental principle of Mendelian randomization. [PDF]
PLoS MedicineThe explosion of Mendelian Randomization (MR) submissions of dubious quality to journals globally is well recognized. Contributing to this deluge of publications may be the poor understanding among practitioners, reviewers, and editors of gene ...

Weak equivalence principle in quantum space
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Owing to the development of String Theory and Quantum Gravity, studies of quantized spaces described by deformed commutation relations for operators of coordinates and operators of momenta have received much attention.

Equivalence principle violation from large scale structure
Physics Letters B, 2022 We explore the interplay between the equivalence principle and a generalization of the Heisenberg uncertainty relations known as extended uncertainty principle, that comprises the effects of spacetime curvature at large distances.

ΛCDM and the principle of equivalence
Open Physics, 2023 There is growing evidence that the net acceleration of the Universe over its entire history is essentially zero. This finding is critical in light of a recent examination of the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker (FLRW) metric using the local flatness ...

Spacetime contraction in the Einstein's elevator [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ensino de Física, 2020 The equivalence principle was explained by Einstein using the didactic “mental experiment” of a uniform gravitational field inside an elevator.

General formalism of the quantum equivalence principle
Communications Physics, 2023 A consistent theory of quantum gravity will require a fully quantum formulation of the classical equivalence principle. Such a formulation has been recently proposed in terms of the equality of the rest, inertial and gravitational mass operators, and for

Toward a high-precision mass–energy test of the equivalence principle with atom interferometers
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 The equivalence principle (EP) is a basic assumption of the general relativity. The quantum test of the equivalence principle with atoms is an important way to examine the applicable scope of the current physical framework so as to discover new physics ...

Shocks, superconvergence, and a stringy equivalence principle
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We study propagation of a probe particle through a series of closely situated gravitational shocks. We argue that in any UV-complete theory of gravity the result does not depend on the shock ordering — in other words, coincident gravitational shocks ...
