Can We Test Quantum Gravity?
Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth!
Can We Test Quantum Gravity? PBS Space Time
If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple theories that claim to do this, but it’s notoriously difficult to test them. Let’s talk about some ideas for quantum gravity experiments that can be done on a non-galaxy-sized lab bench, and in some cases already have been done.
