摘要:

放宽黎曼条件,将几何量,如扭转和非度量,可以允许探索新的物理与缺陷在一个假设的时空微观结构。在这里,我们表明,非度规性产生可观察到的效果,在量子场的形式4-费米子接触相互作用,从而使我们能够约束的规模的非度规性大于1 TeV的Bhabha散射的结果。我们的分析是在广泛的一类引力理论的框架内进行的度量仿射方法。得到的界限代表了几个数量级的改进,以前的实验约束。

英文摘要:

Relaxing the Riemannian condition to incorporate geometric quantities such as torsion and non-metricity may allow to explore new physics associated with defects in a hypothetical space-time microstructure. Here we show that non-metricity produces observable effects in quantum fields in the form of 4-fermion contact interactions, thereby allowing us to constrain the scale of non-metricity to be greater than 1 TeV by using results on Bhabha scattering. Our analysis is carried out in the framework of a wide class of theories of gravity in the metric-affine approach. The bound obtained represents an improvement of several orders of magnitude to previous experimental constraints.
