Zusammenfassung: | Experimental proposals for testing quantum gravity-induced entanglement of
masses (QGEM) typically involve two interacting masses which are each in a
spatial superposition state. Here, we propose instead a QGEM experiment with
two particles which are each in a superposition of rotational states, this
amounts to a superposition of mass through mass-energy equivalence. In sharp
contrast to the typical protocols studied, our proposal is genuinely
relativistic. It does not consider a quantum positional degree of freedom but
relies on the fact that rotational energy gravitates: the effect we consider
disappears in the limit where the speed of light c approaches infinity.
Furthermore, this approach would test a feature unique to gravity since it
amounts to sourcing a spacetime in superposition due to a superposition of
'charge'. |
