One natural avenue is to retain the interplay between gravity and geometry but now use quantum Riemannian geometry in place of the standard, classical one. This is the key idea underlying loop quantum gravity. There are several calculat ...

... A beam of silver atoms sent through a non-uniform magnetic field was split into two discrete components. Classically, it should be spread out because the magnetic moment of the atom can have any orientation. QM says if it is due to orbital angular momentum, there should be an odd number of component ...

This means that, if you prepared an electron in a certain state 100 different times, and then tried measuring its position, you’d expect to find the electron inside the box 97 times but outside just 3 times. Another example: ...
