The passage around this formula

…type: a detector linearly coupled to the field itself and a detector coupled to the field’s proper-time derivative are different instruments on the same worldline, and their response spectra carry different powers of Ω\Omega in the numerator even for identical trajectories — Moustos showed exactly this, that a detector’s early-time response depends on which bilinear of the field it couples to, even though, remarkably, its late-time asymptotic state does not [ 9 ] . The third is the gap Ω\Omega itself, or more…
