Physicists have chased a unified description of nature for more than a century, yet quantum theory and gravity have ...

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.

In the end, the Universe becomes a place where gravity and quantum physics slowly turn all mass into faint streams of particles.

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

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 ...

Quantum gravity seeks a consistent framework to merge the principles of quantum mechanics with general relativity, addressing the challenges of formulating a quantum field theory for the gravitational ...

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 ...
