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

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

A new theory suggests that the unification between quantum physics and general relativity has eluded scientists for 100 years because huge "fluctuations" in space and time mean that gravity won't play ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

Breakthroughs in science often begin with a simple question and years of tireless exploration. From the way tiny molecules slip through microscopic pores to the staggering behavior of matter near ...

A new way of explaining gravity could bring us a step closer to resolving the heretofore irresolvable differences it has with quantum mechanics. Physicists Mikko Partanen and Jukka Tulkki at Aalto ...

Diagrammatic representation of the entropic quantum gravity action. The action for gravity is given by the quantum relative entropy between the metric of the manifold and the metric induced by the ...

Researchers have developed a method to model a central theory of quantum gravity in the laboratory. Their goal: to decipher previously unexplained phenomena in the quantum world. Gravity is no longer ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, perfectly described on cosmic scales yet refusing to mesh with the quantum rules that govern everything else. A growing camp ...

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 ...

A potential new theory of gravity that ruffles the fabric of the universe, allowing space and time to vary erratically, could solve some of the largest mysteries in physics and do away with the need ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of ...
