GUP parameter from quantum corrections to the Newtonian potential

GUP parameter from quantum corrections to the Newtonian potential

We propose a technique to compute the deformation parameter of the generalized uncertainty principle by using the leading quantum corrections to the Newtonian potential. We just assume General Relativity as theory of Gravitation, and the thermal nature of the GUP corrections to the Hawking spectrum....
