Description

The gravitational field of ultra-relativistic particles has never been measured. The LHC proton beam at γ ≈ 7500 offers a unique terrestrial source to probe gravity in this regime, where scalar-tensor theories predict deviations from general relativity. We characterise the spectral properties of the gravitational signal arising from realistic beam-filling patterns, explore modulation strategies to enhance detectability, and assess the noise requirements for a realistic experimental setup.
