A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

While the electromagnetic, weak and strong forces are all described using quantum field theory — a mathematical framework that incorporates uncertainty and wave-particle duality — gravity ...

Researchers at TU Wien and FU Berlin have, for the first time, measured what happens when quantum information is lost, ...

Physicists have managed to simulate a strange quantum phenomenon where light appears to arise from empty space a concept that ...

Science books that can transform complex cosmic ideas into poetic, personal, and unforgettable narratives that are far more ...

On that basis, Plefka and his colleagues applied techniques from quantum field theory that are more typically used to analyze the behavior of elementary particles. “We’re building on decades ...
