[HTML][HTML] Stochastic gravity: Theory and applications

BL Hu, E Verdaguer - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2008 - Springer
Whereas semiclassical gravity is based on the semiclassical Einstein equation with sources
given by the expectation value of the stress-energy tensor of quantum fields, stochastic semi …

[HTML][HTML] Gravitational decoherence: A thematic overview

C Anastopoulos, BL Hu - AVS Quantum Science, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
Gravitational decoherence (GD) refers to the effects of gravity in actuating the classical
appearance of a quantum system. Because the underlying processes involve issues in …

Signatures of the quantization of gravity at gravitational wave detectors

M Parikh, F Wilczek, G Zahariade - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We develop a formalism to calculate the response of a model gravitational wave detector to
a quantized gravitational field. Coupling a detector to a quantum field induces stochastic …

[HTML][HTML] Wave scattering event shapes at high energies

R Gonzo, A Ilderton - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract We study the space and properties of global and local observables for radiation
emitted in the scattering of a massive scalar field in gauge and gravitational plane-wave …

Relativistic quantum information in detectors–field interactions

BL Hu, SY Lin, J Louko - Classical and quantum gravity, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract We review Unruh–DeWitt detectors and other models of detector–field interaction in
a relativistic quantum field theory setting as a tool for extracting detector–detector, field–field …

Quantum noise of gravitons and stochastic force on geodesic separation

HT Cho, BL Hu - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
In this work we consider the effects of gravitons and their fluctuations on the dynamics of two
masses using the Feynman-Vernon influence functional formalism, applied earlier to …

Radiation reaction and gravitational waves in the effective field theory approach

CR Galley, M Tiglio - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2009 - APS
We compute the contribution to the Lagrangian from the leading order (2.5 post-Newtonian)
radiation reaction and the quadrupolar gravitational waves emitted from a binary system …

[HTML][HTML] Radiation reaction in strong field QED

A Ilderton, G Torgrimsson - Physics Letters B, 2013 - Elsevier
We derive radiation reaction from QED in a strong background field. We identify, in general,
the diagrams and processes contributing to recoil effects in the average momentum of a …

Can spacetime be a condensate?

BL Hu - International journal of theoretical physics, 2005 - Springer
We explore further the proposal [Hu, BL (1996). General relativity as geometro-
hydrodynamics.(Invited talk at the Second Sakharov Conference, Moscow, May 1996); gr …

Experimental observation of acceleration-induced thermality

MH Lynch, E Cohen, Y Hadad, I Kaminer - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We examine the radiation emitted by high-energy positrons channeled into silicon crystal
samples. The positrons are modeled as semiclassical vector currents coupled to an Unruh …
