Quantum states of gravitational source masses can lead to experimental outcomes that are inconsistent with the predictions of a purely classical field theory of gravity. Environmental decoherence places strict boundary conditions to the potential realization of such experiments: sufficiently mild not to act as a fundamental show-stopper, yet sufficiently demanding to represent a formidable challenge to the next generation of quantum experiment(er)s.

  1. Remote entanglement of massive oscillators via wire-mediated Coulomb interaction

    quant-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A conducting wire changes the Coulomb coupling between two charged oscillators from a 1/D³ to a 1/(D ln²D) decay, enabling steady-state motional entanglement at separations up to ~1 mm.

  2. A spacetime-covariant approach to inertial and accelerated quantum clocks in first-quantization

    gr-qc 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    A covariant first-quantized clock formalism yields unitary proper-time evolution for inertial and magnetically accelerated clocks, producing density matrices whose peaks recover classical time dilation plus Gaussian o...

  3. Black Holes, Entanglement and Decoherence

    hep-th 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    Satishchandran reviews three equivalent mechanisms by which black holes and other Killing horizons decohere nearby quantum superpositions, via interior entanglement, soft radiation, and fluctuating multipoles.
