Gravitational coupling of microscopic source masses: challenges for future quantum Cavendish experiments

Event Start:

Event Information:

No experiment today provides evidence that gravity requires a quantum description. It has been suggested that one can at least exclude the possibility for semiclassical gravity by performing an experiment whose outcome cannot be explained by a purely classical source mass configuration.
