abstract

We study the bending of gravitons that pass near a massive object like the Sun, using scattering amplitudes in which the Sun is represented by a massive scalar particle. Our results complete previous work on the bending angles of massless spin-0, spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ and spin-1 particles, and provides more evidence for the violation of the equivalence principle at the quantum level, in the sense that the quantum corrections to bending angles for massless particles with different spins are different. We provide a universal expression for the bending angle in terms of coefficients of triangle and bubble integrals in the amplitudes in the low energy limit. We also compare bending angles for scalar, photon and graviton projectiles under different circumstances.

    In modified-gravity theories, spin Hall deflection of light and gravitational waves by a spinning black hole becomes non-commuting, so a ray disperses into a blob, and black-hole spin direction can tighten causality b...

    Metric-affine gravity formulates equivalence principle violations via non-metricity that parallel finite-temperature mass-ratio shifts, and a generalized Fermi-Walker derivative shows no orthonormal tetrad propagates ...
