In our day and age we can calculate the mass and maximum volume of a black hole. With LIGO we can also now calculate by how much is space warped, relative to the distance to a black hole merger, such that we could potentially say something like "with a merger of a approximate total mass of M, and an approximate distance from the earth D, we saw a warping of space itself of W", and then even look at the amount of increase in space warping as D approaches 0.

My question then is, do we have anything in quantum mechanics to tell us 2 things:

  1. how much space itself (in quantum space theory) warps around a body of mass M
  2. how many gravitons are responsible for that amount of warping

Please excuse my lack of knowledge, or if I ask anything silly, I am not a physicist in any way shape or form. My intention was to somewhat get an idea on whether this paper, combined with the answer, can tell us what the quark-to-graviton ratio could be in the universe, since supposedly we could approximate the number of quarks in a black hole.
