In this work we have considered a simple mechanical oscillator interacting with a single mode optical field inside a cavity in the generalized uncertainty principle framework (GUP). Our aim is to calculate the modified noise spectrum and observe the effects of the GUP. The commutation relation that we have considered has an extra linear order momentum term along with a quadratic order term. Confronting our theoretical results with the observational results, we observe that we get a much tighter bound on the GUP parameters from the noise spectrum using the values of the system parameters from different experiments.
The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is modified by the introduction of an observer-independent minimal length. In this work, we have considered the resonant gravitational wave detector in the modified uncertainty principle framework, where we have used the position momentum uncertainty relation with a quadratic order correction only. We have then used the path integral approach to calculate an action for the bar detector in the presence of a gravitational wave and then derived the Lagrangian of the system, leading to the equation of motion for the configuration-space position coordinate in one dimension. We then find a perturbative solution for the coordinate of the detector for a circularly polarized gravitational wave, leading to a classical solution of the same for the given initial conditions. Using this classical form of the coordinate of the detector, we finally obtain the classical form of the on-shell action describing the harmonic oscillator–gravitational wave system. Finally, we have obtained the free particle propagator containing the quantum fluctuation term considering gravitational wave interaction.
