A Looking for the earliest articles about Quantum Gravity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding the earliest articles related to quantum gravity, specifically those predating Matyevei. Bryce DeWitt is highlighted as a key figure in the field, often referred to as the grandfather of modern quantum gravity, alongside John Archibald Wheeler. Participants suggest reviewing DeWitt's and Wheeler's literature for historical insights. Additionally, the 1935 work of Bronstein is mentioned as a significant early contribution to quantum gravity. The conversation emphasizes the importance of exploring these foundational texts for a comprehensive understanding of the subject.

TL;DR Summary
foundation of quantum gravity
I am looking for first articles of quantum gravity in the history which before Matyevei. What is earliest articles of quantum gravity and how can ı find them?

Bryce DeWitt is considered the grandfather of modern Quantum Gravity by some scholars.. A thorough review of his literature as well as the literature of John Archibald Wheeler should yield some good results for your research into the historical origins of Quantum Gravity. Good luck! https://legacy.lib.utexas.edu/taro/utcah/00413/cah-00413.html
 

Thread 'Need help on understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
