If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

Ask almost any physicist what the most frustrating problem is in modern-day physics, and they will likely say the discrepancy between general relativity and quantum mechanics. That discrepancy has ...

Then, there's the fact that Einstein's theory of gravity won't "play nice" with quantum physics. The new framework — or "recipe" for gravity, if you will — takes the metric of spacetime from ...

Scientists propose a relatively simple yet still complicated tabletop experiment to test the quantumness of gravity, aiming to reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics.

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the ...

One of the world’s leading scientific journals recognizes physicist Igor Pikovski’s work on a method to detect gravitational ...

Last year, Jonathan Oppenheim’s theory of post-quantum gravity was the only theory that made it into my Best of 2024 summary.

The study, titled "Gravity from Entropy," introduces a novel ... of the most fundamental yet seemingly incompatible theories in physics: quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity.

When medieval scholars sought to understand the nature of angels, they unwittingly laid the foundations of modern physics ...
