N1 - Funding information: I am grateful to the German Foreign Academic Exchange (DAAD) for partially supporting my research activities in Germany in 2016. I would like to thank the IP@Leibniz program of the Leibniz University of Hanover for travel grants supporting my stays in France. I would like to acknowledge the mobility support from the Q-SENSE project, which has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) Horizon 2020 program under Grant Agreement Number 691156 to support my stay at Stanford during my 3-month research stay in 2018. Additional mobility funds were thankfully made available through the bilateral exchange project PHC-Procope giving me the possibility to travel to France during my PhD time. Many thanks to the Université Franco-Allemande for the support to invite my committee board the day of my defense. Doctoral thesis

N2 - Modern physics relies on two distinct fun- damental theories, General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Both describe on one hand macroscopic and cosmological phenomena such as gravitational waves and black holes and on the other hand micro- scopic phenomena as superfluidity or the spin of par- ticles. The unification of these two theories remains, so far, an unsolved problem. Interestingly, candidate Quantum Gravity theories predict a violation of the principles of General Relativity at different levels. It is, therefore, of a timely interest to detect violations of these principles and determine at which level they occur.
