Towards a Phenomenology of Quantum Gravity? Speaker(s): John Ellis
Abstract: This talk will review proposed tests of ideas about quantum gravity, including searches for quantum decoherence, probes of the possible energy-dependence of the velocity of light, and the nature of vacuum energy. Motivations will be drawn from a non-critical string theory framework.
