The concept of gravitons and the measurement of effects of quantum gravity

  • 1. Einstein-Laboratorium fur Theoretische Physik, der Akademie der Wissenschaften der DDR, Rosa-Luxemburg-Str. 17a, 1502 Potsdam-Babelsberg (German Democratic Republic)

Description

It is demonstrated, first, that there arise limitations in Quantum Gravity which show that General Relativity Theory (GRT) is essentially classical and, second, that the graviton language is accordingly only useful in certain approximations to GRT, in order to harmonise GRT and the quantum theory of matter
