It is well known that excited quantum systems can emit gravitons as well as photons. Differently from photon emission, spontaneous graviton emission is characterized by such a low probability that stimulated emission appears the only…
The primary observable in dark matter direct detection is the spectrum of scattering events. We simulate multiple positive direct detection signals (on germanium, xenon, and argon targets) to explore the extent to which the underlying…
We investigate the direct contribution of the magnetic field to the gravitational wave generation. To do so, we study the post-Newtonian energy-momentum tensor of the magnetized fluid and the post-Newtonian expansion of the gravitational…

If the gravitational interaction is unified with the electroweak and strong interactions at a mass M=10^15 GeV, the evolution of Newton's constant must differ from its classical (general relativistic) form. We can model such behavior by…
We determine active gravitational mass operator of the simplest composite quantum body - a hydrogen atom - within the semiclassical approach to the Einstein equation for a gravitational field. We show that the expectation value of the mass…
The anomalous magnetic moment of a lepton encodes the fraction of the lepton's interaction strength with an external magnetic field, which is generated by quantum corrections. Lepton anomalous magnetic moments are sensitive probes of…

Conventional non-Abelian SO(4) gauge theory is able to describe gravity provided the gauge field possesses a specific polarized vacuum state in which the instantons have a preferred orientation. Their orientation plays the role of the order…

We point out that in a large class of superstring--inspired $E(6)$ models, either an e+e- collider operating at a center--of--mass energy $\rs= 1.5$ TeV or higher must detect the pair production of charged or neutral exotic leptons, or an…
The motion of a system of particles under electromagnetic interaction is considered. Under the assumption that the force acting on an electric charge is given by the sum of the electromagnetic fields produced by any other charged particles…
