Session 2

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...

Session 2

Quantum systems in nonequilibrium conditions, where coherent many-body interactions compete with dissipative effects, can feature rich phase diagrams and emergent critical behavior. Associated collective effects, together with the continuous observation of quanta dissipated into the environment—typically photons—allow one to achieve quantum-enhanced parameter estimation [1]. However, protocols...
