Quantum sensor networks as exotic field telescopes for multi-messenger astronomy
2020
Multi-messenger astronomy, the coordinated observation of different classes of signals originating from the same astrophysical event, provides a wealth of information about astrophysical processes with far-reaching implications. So far, the focus of multi-messenger astronomy has been the search for conventional signals from known fundamental forces and standard model particles, like gravitational waves (GW). In addition to these known effects, quantum sensor networks could be used to search for astrophysical signals predicted by beyond-standard-model (BSM) theories. Exotic bosonic fields are ubiquitous features of BSM theories and appear while seeking to understand the nature of dark matter…

A quantum group for the Einstein's equations
2011
In this paper, we expose the construction of a possible, simple matrix quantum group structure (according to Woronowicz), related to elementary formal aspects of the Einstein field equations of General Relativity, and their possible symmetries.

Thermodynamic class II Szekeres–Szafron solutions. Regular models
2020
In a recent paper (Coll {\em et al} 2019 {\it Class. Quantum Grav.} {\bf 36} 175004) we have studied a family of Szekeres-Szafron solutions of class II in local thermal equilibrium (singular models). In this paper we deal with a similar study for all other class II Szekeres-Szafron solutions without symmetries. These models in local thermal equilibrium (regular models) are analyzed and their associated thermodynamic schemes are obtained. In particular, we focus on the subfamily of solutions which are compatible with the generic ideal gas equation of state ($p = \tilde{k} n \Theta$), and we analyze in depth two notable interpretations that follow on from the choice of two specific thermodyna…
Minimal coupling in presence of non-metricity and torsion
2020
We deal with the question of what it means to define a minimal coupling prescription in presence of torsion and/or non-metricity, carefully explaining while the naive substitution $\partial\to\na$ introduces extra couplings between the matter fields and the connection that can be regarded as non-minimal in presence of torsion and/or non-metricity. We will also investigate whether minimal coupling prescriptions at the level of the action (MCPL) or at the level of field equations (MCPF) lead to different dynamics. To that end, we will first write the Euler-Lagrange equations for matter fields in terms of the covariant derivatives of a general non-Riemannian space, and derivate the form of the…
199 Causal Classes of Space-Time Frames

It is shown that from the causal point of view Minkowskian space-time admits 199, and only 199, different classes of frames.
Classification of gravitational-wave glitches via dictionary learning
2018
We present a new method for the classification of transient noise signals (or glitches) in advanced gravitational-wave interferometers. The method uses learned dictionaries (a supervised machine learning algorithm) for signal denoising, and untrained dictionaries for the final sparse reconstruction and classification. We use a data set of 3000 simulated glitches of three different waveform morphologies, comprising 1000 glitches per morphology. These data are embedded in non-white Gaussian noise to simulate the background noise of advanced LIGO in its broadband configuration. Our classification method yields a 96% accuracy for a large range of initial parameters, showing that learned diction…
