DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jerzy Michal Paczos (Stockholm University)\n\nHow gr
 avity affects quantum systems is a central question in theoretical physics
 . In this talk\, Jerzy Michal Paczos\, PhD student at the Condensed Matter
  and Quantum Optics group at Fysikum will describe some of his own researc
 h in this area. He will discuss how atomic quantum systems can be used as 
 sensitive probes of spacetime effects by placing them in a spatial superpo
 sition at two different heights in Earth's gravitational field. He will al
 so discuss a general framework for spontaneous emission in curved spacetim
 e\, within which gravitational waves are shown to leave characteristic imp
 rints on atomic emission. These proposed experiments\, within the reach of
  current technology\, could provide new ways to investigate gravitational 
 effects in quantum systems.\n\nhttps://indico.fysik.su.se/event/9631/
