Scientists have uncovered a surprising connection between quantum gravity and an exotic quantum state of matter that could ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a striking concept in a 1935 paper. In that work, they described an abstract ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

A hundred times more than relativity theory -- "An act of desperation" -- The impudent Swabian -- The gypsy life -- Two pillars of wisdom -- The perfect instruments of the creator -- More heat than ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. 'No understanding of or interest in modern physics': Einstein (pictured) was criticised by Oppenheimer - Library of ...

A researcher at Kyushu University and his collaborators have shown that continuous parameters in quantum gravity may not be ...

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 ...

Gravity is one of four fundamental interactions. The most precise description of this force is still provided by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, published in 1915, an entirely classical ...

A "New Theory of Everything" aims to advance and improve our understanding of gravity beyond what we know from Einstein's Theory of Relativity. For years, scientists have tried to combine gravity with ...

Professional physicists, especially quantum physicists, were not much interested in the rumored coming of Einstein’s new field theory. They had made a decisive turn shortly after the Solvay Conference ...

Quote of the day from Einstein and Bohr reveals a powerful truth about science, curiosity, and human thinking. Their legendary rivalry in quantum physics was not a battle of egos but a search for ...
