Interesting article on possible tests for quantum gravity (and some background on whether gravity is quantised or not): https://www.quantamagazine.org/physicists-find-a-way-to-see-the-grin-of-quantum-gravity-20180306/

Very interesting article, Strange.
Thanks.

When a theory of quantum gravity is created will the forum have to merge the GR and Quantum Theory sections...

I hope that when the experiment is finalized and shows entaglement as the result confirming indirectly that gravity is in fact quantized, these two guys who came up with the idea get a Nobel. What a witty idea they came up with. Great find Strange, thanks.

 

Edit: BTW, why does it have to be a diamond in the experiment and not regular carbon or some other element?

Flip for it?
