TY - JOUR AU - Bruschi, David Edward AU - Schell, Andreas Wolfgang TI - Gravitational Redshift Induces Quantum Interference JO - Annalen der Physik VL - 535 IS - 1 SN - 0003-3804 CY - Leipzig PB - Barth M1 - FZJ-2022-05954 SP - 2200468 PY - 2023 AB - Quantum field theory in curved spacetime is used to show that gravitational redshift induces a unitary transformation on the quantum state of propagating photons. It is found that the transformation is a mode-mixing operation, and a protocol that exploits gravity to induce a Hong–Ou–Mandel-like interference effect on the state of two photons is devised. It is discussed how the results of this work can provide a demonstration of quantum field theory in curved spacetime.
