Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

The study of quantum gravity seeks a synthesis between quantum mechanics and general relativity, and Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT) has emerged as a promising nonperturbative approach. In CDT, ...

A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept of quantum gravity does not exist. The idea comes from two London-based ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

A new theory of quantum gravity, which attempts to unite quantum physics with Einstein's relativity, could help solve the puzzle of the universe's expansion, a theoretical paper suggests. When you ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

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 ...

Image shows a laser beam in Gavin Morley’s lab probes the quantum properties of a diamond. Scientists are developing an experiment to test whether gravity is quantum In quantum mechanics, which ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.
