Where can I study (research) Loop Quantum Gravity?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding institutions that research Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG). Louisiana State University (LSU) is identified as an institution involved in LQG research, specifically mentioning Professor Singh's lab. Participants emphasize the importance of reviewing academic papers in the field to identify affiliations of authors, which is a practical method for discovering leading research institutions. The conversation highlights the theoretical nature of LQG research, indicating that it does not involve traditional experimental labs.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) concepts
  • Familiarity with academic research methodologies
  • Ability to analyze scientific papers and author affiliations
  • Knowledge of graduate school structures and programs in physics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research academic papers on Loop Quantum Gravity to identify leading authors and institutions
  • Explore graduate programs at Louisiana State University focusing on LQG
  • Investigate other institutions known for theoretical physics research
  • Learn about the current advancements and challenges in Loop Quantum Gravity
USEFUL FOR

Undergraduate students in physics, prospective PhD candidates, and anyone interested in theoretical physics and Loop Quantum Gravity research.

Thank you for opening this Thread
I am kind of new here and this is my first time to post so I apologize if I did something wrong

So my question is where can I study/ research Loop Quantum Gravity
I have checked fair amount of grad school websites and compared to Super String, I have not yet found a place where they openly say they research LQG
Currently I am a undergrad in Japan and possibly start my Bachelor thesis in a year
Since i am considering to get a PhD in physics I thought it would be great to see what kind of grad school actually research on what I am interested in

Thank you for reading and It will be great if you could answer my question
 
Physics news on Phys.org
LSU does work in LQG I believe.

I guess that is Louisiana State University and would that research lab be Professor Singh's lab? Thank you very much !

Er... one doesn't do research work in LQG in a "lab". After all, what "experiment" can there be since this all highly theoretical and hypothetical?

Coming back to your original question, if you are already at this stage, then you should have read several papers in this area, and especially in the specific topic that you are interested in. Weren't you able to look at those papers and check the affiliations of the authors? That is the quickest way to know who is doing what, and at what institution.

thank you for your reply
Ah come to think of it
yes the word i shouldve used is the word institution, didnt come to mind

I didnt think of that, and I guess I will try it out
Though it would be nice not to just learn not only which institution researches LQG but also which institution is good at/ put strength to LQG research

Anyway Thank You for your advice!
 
TL;DR: How can I begin to gain an understanding of astronomy? Hello there, and thank you in advance to anyone that might answer this. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post a question like this, as I am new to this website and also very nervous about making a post that others might see/reply to. I am a freshman in high school and I am interested in astronomy. I want to learn about space, but I am not quite sure where to begin. Is there anything that I can do to seriously expand my...
