Researchers propose way to "see" gravity for the first time

SMRTR summary

Scientists have proposed a groundbreaking method to detect gravitons, the hypothetical particles responsible for gravity at the quantum level. The technique, called the "gravito-phononic effect," involves monitoring quantum energy jumps in a massive, supercooled aluminum cylinder when strong gravitational waves pass through it, potentially allowing researchers to observe gravity's effects at subatomic scales for the first time.
