It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

Physicists claim they may have found a long-awaited explanation for dark energy, the mysterious force that's driving the accelerated expansion of the universe, a new preprint study hints. Their ...

Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in ...

Researchers at TU Wien have integrated quantum physics with general relativity, revealing significant departures from ...

Recent decades have witnessed remarkable progress in establishing rigorous mathematical frameworks for quantum field theory (QFT), conformal field theory (CFT), quantum gravity and string theory.

Dr. Sam D. Toney has launched RevelationEquation.com to present Revelation Equation, a science fiction novel that incorporates established principles from physics to examine the relationship between ...

String theory attempts to unify all forces and particles in the universe using vibrating strings. It aims to explain the Standard Model of particle physics, which is incomplete. String theory predicts ...

String theory captured the hearts and minds of many physicists decades ago because of a beautiful simplicity. Zoom in far enough on a patch of space, the theory says, and you won’t see a menagerie of ...

Last month, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collective reported that dark energy is evolving—specifically weakening—and it could help provide the first observational evidence of string ...

DURHAM, N.C. – Using lasers to contain some ultra-chilled atoms, a team of scientists has measured the viscosity or stickiness of a gas often considered to be the sixth state of matter. The ...

TU Wien researchers have uncovered a quantum twist to the paths particles take through spacetime — one that could finally ...
