(PhysOrg.com) -- As a quantum theory of gravity, loop quantum gravity could potentially solve one of the biggest problems in physics: reconciling general relativity and quantum mechanics. But like all ...

The gauge bosons of the standard model of particle physics are responsible for three of the four known forces in the universe, conveyed through the exchange of virtual bosons. In electromagnetism, the ...

Quantum mechanics and general relativity are fundamentally incompatible for reasons that relate to views of the world that simply cannot be reconciled. In general relativity, space and time are ...

It’s time we talked about loop quantum gravity. What exactly is it? What are the loops? And can it really defeat string theory in our quest for a Theory of Everything? PBS Space Time is available to ...

(Phys.org) —Physicists Rodolfo Gambini and Jorge Pullin of University of the Republic in Montevideo, Uruguay, and Louisiana State University respectively, have applied the theory of Loop Quantum ...

Tiny but ageing neutrinos can be used to test the very foundations of quantum theory at unprecedented cosmological time scales Schrodinger’s skinniest kittens Must the Schrodinger’s Cat be fat enough ...

This article has been updated to correct my confusion of loop corrections to quantum gravity with loop quantum gravity. Dark energy is the mystery du jour in cosmology. It is the name given to ...

PHYSICISTS like everything neat and tidy. They assume that the universe must be governed by a single set of rules and are thus disturbed that, at the moment, they have to rely on two sets. One, called ...
