Quantum gravimetry with intrinsic quantum time uncertainty
We study quantum gravimetry when the interrogation time carries intrinsic uncertainty, motivated by a fundamental limit on temporal resolution associated with the energy--time uncertainty relation. For linearly gravity-coupled gravimeters, we obtain the effective gravity information by profiling the interrogation time from the two-parameter quantum Fisher information (QFI) matrix. In this class, the time-information block is quadratic in the gravitational parameter, and for quadratic background dynamics, the gravity--time cross term becomes affine in $g$. These properties yield a normalized expression for the fraction of standard single-parameter gravity QFI that remains once interrogation time is treated as a nuisance parameter, with an affine numerator and a Lorentzian denominator. We work out these results in three benchmark models: a freely falling Gaussian wavepacket, the Kasevich--Chu light-pulse atom interferometer, and an idealized closed-unitary optomechanical model. The Gaussian free-fall benchmark yields an exact closed-form expression for the effective gravity information and shows explicitly how nuisance-time profiling suppresses the momentum-spread-dependent part of the standard single-parameter gravity QFI. In the Kasevich--Chu interferometer, internal state population readout gives a rank-deficient measured two-parameter geometry unless independent timing information is supplied, whereas full access to the final motional and internal states restores a full-rank geometry with retention controlled by the competition between initial velocity spread and gravitationally accumulated motion. In atom-interferometric benchmarks, the framework yields explicit conditions for minimizing nuisance-time information loss, together with corresponding constraints on momentum spread, spatial localization, and long-interrogation-time operation.
