Abstract

String Theory, Quantum Geometry, Loop Quantum Gravity and Black Hole physic all predict the existence of a observable minimal length at Planck scale. For example, in case of string theory it is conjectured that a particle described as a string does not interact at distances smaller than its size. As a consequence, the HUP has to be generalized to take into account this aspect. The models which are designed to implement the minimal length scale and/or the maximum momentum in different physical systems entered into the literature as the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP). Here, quadratic GUP model has been used to estimate the quantum-gravitational correction of ground state energy of hydrogen atom (H-atom).
