If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...

A "theory of everything" that encompasses both general relativity and quantum physics has thwarted the efforts of minds as great as Stephen Hawking, and even Einstein himself. One of the major ...

Physics has a problem – their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, the German Research Foundation is ...

Besides quantum theory, general relativity is one of two pillars of modern physics – our working theory of gravity and of the very large, of planets, galaxies and the universe as a whole.

When spacetime is divided into tiny units, the obscure connection between quantum theory and generally relativity suddenly ...

Cosmic speed limits can be a major inconvenience but they've rarely stopped science fiction in its tracks.

Ask almost any physicist what the most frustrating problem is in modern-day physics, and they will likely say the discrepancy between general relativity and quantum mechanics. That discrepancy has ...

A blackboard at a U.K. university is believed to be the only one of its kind that has both Albert Einstein's scientific notations and his signature.
