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 ...

There’s an adage coined by [Ian Betteridge] that any headline ending in a question mark can be answered by the word “No”.

Quantum gravity and field theory represent a frontier where the principles of quantum mechanics are reconciled with Einstein’s description of gravity. Researchers are seeking a consistent framework ...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum ...

Quantum gravity seeks a consistent framework to merge the principles of quantum mechanics with general relativity, addressing the challenges of formulating a quantum field theory for the gravitational ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth space-time with the jittery world of quantum mechanics. A new wave of ...

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 ...

This interaction could help explain both why quantum processes can occur within environments like the brain and why we lose ...
