Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of ...

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

Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...

it’s actually by far the weakest of the four known forces of nature – and the only one not explained by quantum theory. Quantum theory and general relativity in fact don’t get along at all.

Despite explaining astronomical phenomena far better, general relativity became deeply unfashionable, as it failed to explain what happens deep inside the atom. Einstein’s big idea was the ...

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

Looks like we’re closer than ever to connecting general relativity and quantum mechanics. A new study suggests that when we ...

For over a century, physicists have grappled with one of the most profound questions in science: How do the rules of quantum ...

By modifying Einstein's theory of general relativity, the center of a black hole with infinite curvature could be replaced by a highly curved but regular region of space-time, the researchers ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding light on dark matter and dark energy. A new recipe for gravity could help ...
