For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

A variation on the theory of quantum gravity — the unification of quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity — could help solve one of the biggest puzzles in cosmology, new research suggests.

In search of a united scientific theory, a new quantum gravity paper might have proposed an interesting aspect that made the ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity does a great job at explaining gravity but it is thought to be incomplete ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Last year, Jonathan Oppenheim’s theory of post-quantum gravity was the only theory that made it into my Best of 2024 summary. Post-quantum gravity is one of the most ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

Quantum gravity and field theory represent a frontier where the principles of quantum mechanics are reconciled with Einstein’s description of gravity. Researchers are seeking a consistent framework ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. The greatest scientific legacy that Albert Einstein left us is this: ...

Physicists tested light speed using cosmic gamma-ray bursts. Study confirms Einstein's prediction that all light colors travel at same speed.
