A theoretical study suggests that gravity could have quantum effects without itself being a quantum theory. Other researchers aren’t so sure.

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other ...

“We showed that if black hole morsels are created during mergers, they would produce a burst of high-energy gamma rays, with the delay time related to their mass,” Dr. Cacciapaglia said. “Our analysis ...

In a new, detailed breakdown of current theory, a team of physicists led by Mir Faizal of the University of British Columbia ...

The possibility that our entire universe merely exists inside a computer simulation is more than an idle science fiction ...

A long-standing challenge in physics has been to integrate gravity into the Standard Model, which successfully describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces. The difficulty lies in the ...

Quantum gravity strives to reconcile the seemingly disparate realms of general relativity and quantum mechanics. Central to this endeavour is the realisation that classical concepts of spacetime may ...

In their study, they identified what they called "Godelian truths", truths that cannot be defined by any algorithm or fixed ...

For obvious reasons, we do not know what the inside of a black hole looks like. But thanks to theoretical physics, we can ask ...

Explore the complex challenges of quantum gravity in this video, examining the evolution of gravity models and the necessity ...

Evidence of this quantum layer may be coming soon. Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: Physicists are still puzzling over ...

Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the ...
