Probing Spacetime Foam with Extragalactic Sources of High-Energy Photons
Quantum fluctuations can endow spacetime with a foamy structure. In this review article, we discuss our various proposals to observationally constrain models of spacetime foam. One way is to examine if the light wave-front from a distant quasar or GRB can be noticeably distorted by spacetime-foam-in...
