Title: Exploring Gravity Models with Bose Gases: Tabletop Experiments and Seismic Waves
Utilizing the recently established connection between Palatini-like gravity
and linear Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) models, we have formulated
an approach that facilitates the examination of Bose gases. Our primary focus
is on the ideal Bose-Einstein condensate and liquid helium, chosen as
illustrative examples to underscore the feasibility of tabletop experiments in
assessing gravity models. The non-interacting Bose-Einstein condensate imposes
constraints on linear GUP and Palatini $f(R)$ gravity (Eddington-inspired
Born-Infeld gravity) within the ranges of $-10^{12}lesssimsigmalesssim
3times 10^{24}{text{ s}}/{text{kg m}}$ and
$-10^{-1}lesssimbarbetalesssim 10^{11} text{ m}^2$
($-4times10^{-1}lesssimepsilonlesssim 4times 10^{11} text{ m}^2$),
respectively. In contrast, the properties of liquid helium suggest more
realistic bounds, specifically $-10^{23}lesssimsigmalesssim 10^{23}{text{
s}}/{text{kg m}}$ and $-10^{9}lesssimbarbetalesssim 10^{9} text{ m}^2$.
Additionally, we argue that the newly developed method employing Earth seismic
waves provides improved constraints for quantum and modified gravity by
approximately one order of magnitude.
Conclusions:
The article concludes by stating that the recently established connection between Palatini-like gravity and linear Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) models has allowed for the examination of Bose gases. The ideal Bose-Einstein condensate and liquid helium are used as examples to demonstrate the feasibility of conducting tabletop experiments to assess gravity models.
The non-interacting Bose-Einstein condensate sets constraints on linear GUP and Palatini $f(R)$ gravity, with specific ranges for the parameters $sigma$ and $barbeta$. On the other hand, properties of liquid helium provide more realistic bounds for these parameters.
Furthermore, the article suggests that using Earth seismic waves as a method can greatly improve constraints for quantum and modified gravity by approximately one order of magnitude.
