This book summarizes recent developments in the research area of
quantum gravity phenomenology. A series of short and nontechnical
essays lays out the prospects of various experimental possibilities
and their current status. Finding observational evidence for the
quantization of space-time was long thought impossible. In the last
decade however, new experimental design and technological advances
have changed the research landscape and opened new perspectives on
quantum gravity. Formerly dominated by purely theoretical
constructions, quantum gravity now has a lively phenomenology to
offer. From high precision measurements using macroscopic quantum
oscillators to new analysis methods of the cosmic microwave
background, no stone is being left unturned in the experimental
search for quantum gravity. This book sheds new light on the
connection of astroparticle physics with the quantum gravity
problem. Gravitational waves and their detection are covered. It
illustrates findings from the interconnection between general
relativity, black holes and Planck stars. Finally, the return on
investment in quantum-gravitation research is illuminated. The book
is intended for graduate students and researchers entering the
field.
