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 ...

In their quest to understand the fundamental forces of the universe, scientists have gotten stuck on gravity. While the other ...

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 ...

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of ...

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 ...

In a new study published in Physical Review D, Professor Ginestra Bianconi, Professor of Applied Mathematics at Queen Mary ...

Several physicists have proposed theories that try to unite quantum mechanics with Einstein’s general theory of relativity.

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 ...
