I am doing a project of theories of gravity, and am having some trouble understanding whether loop quantum gravity is testable or not. I had some questions which I cannot seem to find the answers to:
1. Is it theoretically possible to probe distances of [itex]10^{-35}[/itex] or would the concentration of energy required result in the formation of a black hole?
2. Is loop quantum gravity testable? If so what are the tests? There seems to be some discrepancy about this online because I have read some sources saying that it does not make any testable predictions, and other saying that the radiation released by black holes, or the CMB, could be used to test for loop quantum gravity, although I cannot find details about this.
Thank you in advance! :)
