In this paper we will provide smoking-gun signatures of nonlocal interactions while studying reflection and transmission of waves bouncing through two Dirac delta potentials. In particular, we will show that the transmission of waves is less damped compared to the local case, due to the fact that nonlocality weakens the interaction. As a consequence the echoes are amplified. These signatures can be potentially detectable in the context of gravitational waves, where two Dirac delta potentials can mimic the two potential barriers at the surface and at the photon sphere of an ultra compact object, or, at the two photon spheres of a wormhole, experiencing nonlocal interactions.The nonlocal interactions have been widely studied since the days of Yukawa [1], Pias and Uhlenbeck [2]. It has been studied widely in the context of quantum field theory in order to ameliorate the ultraviolet (UV) (or, in other words, short-distance) behavior of loop integrals and scattering amplitudes [3][4][5][6]. One of the striking features of nonlocality is that it weakens the interaction, and as a direct consequence it can regularize singularities through smearing out a point-like Dirac delta distribution [7][8][9][10]. The simplest nonlocal interaction can be captured by infinite derivative field theories, where the kinetic operator is generalized by means exponentials of entire functions, which do not introduce any new dynamical degrees of freedom, and modifies the UV behavior of the theory. The latter criteria guarantees perturbative unitarity and classical stability which, in general, are absent in any finite higher derivative theory, see [4,9,10,12]. All these interesting results have inspired the generalization of the Einstein-Hilbert action for gravity to infinite derivative gravity (IDG), with form factors containing nonlocal operators in order to make the theory well defined both at classical and quantum level [4,[7][8][9][10]13]. In a recent generalization which contains all possible curvature corrections [10], it was shown that IDG can resolve the point-like singularity in a static [10,11,[16][17][18], and the ring singularity in a rotating spacetime metric [15], and with the presence of torsion as well [19]. In a dynamical collapse also there are no formation of horizon and singularities [20]. Furthermore, such gravitational actions also help in order to understand the cosmological Big Bang singularity problem [9,21], and potentially resolving the event horizon in the context of astrophysical compact objects [22].The aim of this paper is to provide a smoking gun signature for nonlocal interactions. In particular, we will study the propagation of waves in nonlocal massless scalar field theory in presence of two Dirac delta potential barriers in one spatial dimension. We will work out the quasi-normal modes (QNMs) and the echoes of an initial incoming pulse and make the comparison with the local case. Our analysis allows to make a very powerful analogy in astrophysics. First of all, the two Dirac deltas can be used to model the...
