As a realistic model of a quantum system of matter, this paper investigates the gravitational-wave effects on a hydrogen-like atom. By formulating the tetrad formalism of linearized gravity, we naturally incorporate the gravitational-wave…
Recently, we have suggested some semi-quantitative Hamiltonian for an electron in a hydrogen atom in a weak gravitational field, which takes into account quantum effects of electron motion in the atom. We have shown that this Hamiltonian…
Spin-1/2 particles can be used to study inertial and gravitational effects by means of interferometers, particle accelerators, and ultimately quantum systems. These studies require, in general, knowledge of the Hamiltonian and of the…
In a previous paper, the authors with Ann Nelson proposed that the UV and IR applicability of effective quantum field theories should be constrained by requiring that strong gravitational effects are nowhere encountered in a theory's domain…
If the technology for muon storage rings one day permits sensitivity to precession at the order of $10^{-8}$ Hz, the local gravitational field of Earth can be a dominant contribution to the precession of the muon, which, if ignored, can…
Effects of massive object's spin on massive-massless $2 \to 2$ classical scattering is studied. Focus is set on the less-considered dimensionless expansion parameter $\lambda/b$, where $\lambda$ is the massless particle's wavelength and $b$…
Inertial effects play an important role in classical mechanics but have been largely overlooked in quantum mechanics. Nevertheless, the analogy between inertial forces on mass particles and electromagnetic forces on charged particles is not…
We calculate the first quantum gravitational correction term to the trace anomaly in De Sitter space from the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. This is obtained through an expansion of the full wave functional for gravity and a conformally coupled…
We explicitly worked out the orbital effects induced on the trajectory of a test particle by the the weak-field approximation of the Kerr-de Sitter metric. It results that the node, the pericentre and the mean anomaly undergo secular…
It is known that the gravitational analog of the Faraday rotation arises in the rotating spacetime due to the nonzero gravitomagnetic field. In this paper, we show that it also arises in the "nonrotating" Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime, if…
In this paper, we study the error bound between the Dirac--Fock ground-state energy and the Hartree--Fock ground-state energy, a quantity known as the relativistic effect in quantum mechanics. We confirm that the relativistic effect in the…
The finite nuclear size corrections to the ground state energies and g-factors in muonic atoms are investigated for several elements. Both approximative and exact solutions of the one-particle Dirac equation with both the homogeneous sphere…
A recent set of articles considers the effect of Earth's gravity on the magnetic moments of fermions. The authors conclude that the gravitational effects cancel out for measurements of the electron anomalous magnetic moment, but for the…
The quantum electrodynamic (QED) description of light-and-matter interaction is one of the most fundamental theories of physics and has been shown to be in excellent agreement with experimental results. Specifically, measurements of the…
In space plasma, various effects of magnetic reconnection and turbulence cause the electron motion to significantly deviate from their Larmor orbits. Collectively these orbits affect the electron velocity distribution function and lead to…
Starting from the coupling of a relativistic quantum particle to the curved Schwarzschild space-time, we show that the Dirac--Schwarzschild problem has bound states and calculate their energies including relativistic corrections.…
The behaviour of a "test" electromagnetic field in the background of an exact gravitational plane wave is investigated in the framework of Einstein's general relativity. We have expressed the general solution to the de Rham equations as a…
The behavior of electrons in strained graphene is usually described using effective pseudomagnetic fields in a Dirac equation. Here we consider the particular case of a spatially constant strain. Our results indicate that lattice…
The neutron charge radius is studied within a light-front model with different spin coupling schemes and wave functions. The cancellation of the contributions from the Foldy term and Dirac form factor to the neutron charge form factor is…
Gravito-electromagnetism is somewhat ubiquitous in relativity. In fact, there are many situations where the effects of gravitation can be described by formally introducing "gravito-electric" and "gravito-magnetic" fields, starting from the…
