{"product_id":"quantum-fluctuations-of-spacetime-lawrence-barr-crowell-9789812565150","title":"Quantum Fluctuations of Spacetime","description":"Three key aspects of quantum gravity are considered in this book: phenomenology, potential experimental aspects and foundational theory. The phenomenology is the treatment of metric quantum fluctuations as torsional curves that deviate from classical expectations. This leads to possible experimental configurations that may detect such fluctuations. Most of these proposed experiments are quantum optical measurements of subtle quantum gravity effects in the interaction of photons and atoms. The foundational discussions attempt to find an substratum to string theories, which are motivated by the phenomenological treatment. Quantum gravity is not the quantization of general relativity, but is instead the embedding of quantum theory and gravitation into a more fundamental field theoretic framework.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lawrence Barr Crowell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9812565159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789812565150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/19\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.82h x 6.56w x 1.09d","brand":"Lawrence Barr Crowell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448121372927,"sku":"9789812565150","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a117274d-9f41-4fc2-adcf-657bc8c4c486.jpg?v=1777237040","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/quantum-fluctuations-of-spacetime-lawrence-barr-crowell-9789812565150","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
