Description
The dawn of gravitational wave astronomy provided multiple channels for probing the physics at work in the very early universe as well as for testing gravity itself. They can be categorised into resolved and unresolved gravitational waves sources, the latter of which embodies a stochastically distribution of signals (similar to the CMB) called the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB). In this talk, I review particular ways in which Quantum Gravity (QG) will manifest itself in gravitational waveforms and the SGWB. I present analytic tools and features of the signals that can be utilised to enhance faint signatures of QG originating from the early universe and black hole mergers, and briefly talk about their applications in preliminary works.
