Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...
Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in ...
Everyone has their favourite example of a trick that reliably gets a certain job done, even if they don’t really understand why. Back in the day, it might have been slapping the top of your television ...
Scientists believe that spacetime may have emerged, in part, from a quantum property called “magic.” “Magic” describes how hard a quantum state is to simulate on a regular computer. According to a ...
Physicists have chased a unified description of nature for more than a century, yet quantum theory and gravity have ...
In a new Physical Review Letters study, researchers propose an experimental approach that could finally determine whether gravity is fundamentally classical or quantum in nature. The nature of gravity ...
Scientists are like prospectors, excavating the natural world seeking gems of knowledge about physical reality. And in the century just past, scientists have dug deep enough to discover that reality’s ...
