Interface of Gravitational and Quantum Realms
Abstract
The talk centers around the question: Can general-relativistic description of physical reality be considered complete? On the way I argue how - unknown to many a physicists, even today - the ``forty orders of magnitude argument'' against quantum gravity phenomenology was defeated more than a quarter of a century ago, and how we now stand at the possible verge of detecting a signal for the spacetime foam, and studying the gravitationally-modified wave particle duality using superconducting quantum interference devices.
