- Abstract: In general relativity, the use of conformal transformation is ubiquitous and
leads to two different frames of reference, known as the Jordan and the
Einstein frames. Typically, the transformation from the Jordan frame to the
Einstein frame involves introducing an additional scalar degree of freedom,
often already present in the theory. We will show that at the quantum level,
owing to this extra scalar degree of freedom these two frames exhibit subtle
differences that the entanglement between two massive objects can probe.

braneworld scenarios postulate that the spacetime we effectively observe is actually a 4-dimensional brane embedded in a higher-dimensional spacetime.
We propose an experimental test that uses a pair of gravitationally interacting identical particles to determine the validity of certain braneworld models.

I argue that there may be a symmetry that exchanges the degrees of freedom of the physical frame of reference with the other degrees of freedom which are measured relative to that frame.
This symmetry expresses the fact that the choice of frame of reference is arbitrary, but the same laws apply to all, including observer and observed.
