Some physicists think our reality is a kind of cosmic hologram, with space, time, and gravity as manifestations of a ...

A new quantum recipe for black holes could be the first step toward a theory of "quantum gravity", the "holy grail" of ...

Landauer's principle is a thermodynamics concept also relevant in information theory, which states that erasing one bit of ...

Nearly 50 years ago, physicists floated a bold idea: our universe might be stuck in a false vacuum. This state feels stable, but deep down, it's not. Over enormous timescales, it could suddenly tip ...

A new hypothesis called the “quantum memory matrix” could solve long-standing physics questions, including the Black Hole ...

At the heart of the proposal is a rethinking of how gravity behaves at a fundamental level. While the electromagnetic, weak and strong forces are all described using quantum field theory — a ...

Quantum Entanglement is the biggest mystery of science that could upend life as we know it, and explaining it is an unlikely but fascinating theory writes Satyen K. Bordoloi. It is the stuff of ...

The quantum theory of gravitation, effective field theories and strings: Past and present May 7, 2024 A proposed experiment to test whether gravity behaves as a quantum entity when measured ...

Historically, quantum-field theory challenged the fabric of spacetime, suggesting that it emerges from a nonlocal source. It self-organizes in the heat of spacetime and causality, ...

The quantum field theory framework needed some adjustment for Borinsky and Vogtmann to get the right count. For instance, in quantum field theory, two graphs that are mirror images of each other are ...

Quantum Field Theory tells us that the Universe and everything in it, including us and all living things, the whole planet, every star, every galaxy, ...
