A Possible Solution of the Cosmological Constant Problem Based on GW170817 and Planck Observations with Minimal Length Uncertainty by Abdel Magied Diab, Abdel Nasser Tawfik

“…We propose generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) with an additional term of quadratic momentum motivated by string theory and black hole physics and providing a quantum mechanical framework for the minimal length uncertainty, at the Planck scale. We demonstrate that the GUP parameter, β0, could be best constrained by the gravitational wave observations, GW170817 event. …”
