Abstract

We investigate the entanglement harvesting protocol within the context of cylindrical gravitational waves given first by Einstein and Rosen, focusing on the interactions between non-relativistic quantum systems and linearized quantum gravity. We study how two spatially separated detectors can extract entanglement from the specific spacetime in the presence of gravitational waves, which provides a precise quantification of the entanglement that can be harvested using these detectors. In particular, we obtain the relation between harvested entanglement and the distance to wave sources that emits gravitational waves and analyze the detectability using quantum Fisher information. The enhanced detectability demonstrates the advantages of cylindrical symmetric gravitational waves.
