Scientists from multiple universities are collaborating on a project to experiment if gravity has quantum properties. The experiment, MAST-QG, involves suspending microdiamonds in quantum superposition and aims to combine general relativity and quantum mechanics. This research has wide-ranging implications for physics and could fundamentally alter our understanding of gravity. Researchers are working to determine whether gravity is quantum and understand its behavior. The project, named “MAST-QG: Macroscopic superposition for witnessing the quantum nature of gravity,” involves scientists from the University of Warwick, UCL University, Yale University, Northwestern University, and Groningen University and is seeking to test the quantum properties of gravity. The research is facilitated by the development of innovative experiments aiming to explore the unique quantum properties of gravity and further understand the connection between general relativity and quantum mechanics.
