Have there been any proposals of plausible experiments for any of the heavily studied Quantum Gravity models?

Quantum gravity is a theoretical framework that attempts to reconcile the theories of quantum mechanics and general relativity. It aims to describe the behavior of matter and energy at a microscopic scale and the curvature of spacetime at a macroscopic scale.
Understanding quantum gravity is crucial for a complete understanding of the universe and its fundamental forces. It could also potentially lead to the development of new technologies and applications.
Scientists study quantum gravity through theoretical models and experiments. These experiments involve probing the behavior of particles and fields at extreme energy levels and observing the effects of gravity on them.
Proposed experiments for quantum gravity include high-energy particle colliders, precision measurements of gravitational waves, and observations of quantum entanglement in gravitational systems.
Some current models for quantum gravity include string theory, loop quantum gravity, and asymptotic safety. These models attempt to describe the behavior of quantum matter and gravity at very small scales and high energies.
