In a new, detailed breakdown of current theory, a team of physicists led by Mir Faizal of the University of British Columbia ...

Explore the complex challenges of quantum gravity in this video, examining the evolution of gravity models and the necessity ...

The theoretical physicist and best-selling author finds inspiration in politics and philosophy for rethinking space and time.

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other ...

Quantum cosmology and loop quantum gravity constitute two intertwined pillars in the quest for a quantum theory of gravity. Quantum cosmology applies the principles of quantum mechanics to the entire ...

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

In a new study published in Physical Review D, Professor Ginestra Bianconi, Professor of Applied Mathematics at Queen Mary University of London, proposes a new framework that could revolutionize our ...

Symmetry in quantum mechanics reveals deep connections to conservation laws, influencing both theoretical frameworks and ...

A long-standing challenge in physics has been to integrate gravity into the Standard Model, which successfully describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces. The difficulty lies in the ...

Physics is tough. Want to spot a ripple in space-time? You just need a detector capable of seeing a length change less than one-millionth the size of an atom. Want to find a Higgs boson? No problem – ...
