论文摘要
在这篇简短的论文中，我们表明原子干涉仪实验（例如Magis，Aion或Adge）不仅有可能探测非常轻的暗物质模型，而且还将探测量子重力。我们表明，我们目前对量子重力与来自扭转摆实验的数据相关的量子重力的理解已经排除了单重标量暗物质粒子与电子或光子的线性耦合。另一方面，标量暗物质与电子和光子的二次耦合具有较大的可行参数空间，这些原子干涉仪将探测。讨论了对量子重力搜索的含义。
In this brief paper, we show that atom interferometer experiments such as MAGIS, AION or AEDGE have the potential to not only probe very light dark matter models, but they will also probe quantum gravity. We show that the linear coupling of a singlet scalar dark matter particle to electrons or photons is already ruled out by our current understanding of quantum gravity coupled to data from torsion pendulum experiments. On the other hand, the quadratic coupling of scalar dark matter to electrons and photons has a large viable parameter space which will be probed by these atom interferometers. Implications for searches of quantum gravity are discussed.
