The influence of static gravitational field on frequency, wave-length and velocity of photons and on the energy levels of atoms and nuclei is considered in the most elementary way. The interconnection between these phenomena is stressed.
The term two--photon processes is used for the reactions in which some system of particles is produced in collision of two photons, either real or virtual. In the study of these processes our main goal was to suggest approach, allowing to…
In this essay we examine the response of an Unruh-DeWitt detector (a quantum two-level system) to a gravitational wave background. The spectrum of the Unruh-Dewitt detector is of the same form as some scattering processes or three body…
Quantum quadratic gravity (QQG) produces a tree-level differential cross section for $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$ that is well-behaved at all energies. From this we can study how the corrections to low energy scattering amplitudes are…
We study how entanglement in photoionization is transferred from an electron-ion pair to an electron-photon pair by fluorescence. Time-resolved von Neumann entropies are used to establish how information is shared between the particles.…

Conversion of gravitational waves into electromagnetic radiation is discussed. The probability of transformations of gravitons into photons in presence of cosmological background magnetic field is calculated at the recombination epoch and…
In order to show that the graviton is a quantum entity an experiment is proposed that can show that quantum entanglement is produced by means of an exchange of gravitons. For this to be possible, one has to be able to witness the…
We present a novel method for detecting gravitons using an atomic gas supported by laser fields. Despite the coupling strength of gravitons to atomic transitions being orders of magnitude weaker than that of photons to atomic transitions,…
A scattering process with gravitons as an intermediate state is investigated. To study such a scattering, the Gravitoelectromagnetism theory is considered. It is a gravitational theory built on the analogy between gravity and…
High-frequency gravitational waves ($f \gtrsim 1$ MHz) may provide a unique signature for the existence of exotic physics. The lack of current and future gravitational-wave experiments sensitive at those frequencies leads to the need of…
The quaternion spaces can be used to describe the property of electromagnetic field and gravitational field. In the quaternion space, some coordinate transformations can be deduced from the feature of quaternions, including Lorentz…
The formation of the composite photonic-excitonic particle, known as a polariton, is a phenomenon emerging in materials possessing strong coupling to light. The organic-based materials besides the strong light-matter coupling also…

Gravitational redshift is discussed in the context of quantum photons propagating in curved spacetime. A brief introduction to modelling realistic photons is first presented and the effect of gravity on the spectrum computed for photons…
We report on a recent calculation of the generalized parton distributions (GPDs) of the photon when the momentum transfer in the transverse direction is non-zero. We use an overlap representation of the photon GPDs in terms of the photon…
This work discusses the possibility of observation of nuclear multiphoton processes in which the interaction of a gamma ray photon with a nucleus takes place simultaneously with the interaction of a radio-frequency photon.
A variant of quantum electrodynamics coupled to a dark photon through a kinetic mixing is studied. The analogous of the light-light diagram becomes the conversion process $\gamma'\gamma' \to \gamma \gamma$ and an expression for the…
Quantum entangled photons provide a sensitive probe of many-body interactions and offer an unique experimental portal for quantifying many-body correlations in a material system. In this paper, we present a theoretical demonstration of how…
