During the latter part of the 20th century, string theory was put forward as a unifying theory of physics foundations. String ...
Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string ...
Under quantum field theory, particles interact over zero distance in spacetime. Under the general theory of relativity, the theorized force carrier particle for gravity, the graviton, cannot ...
Perhaps most importantly, it has enabled the development of quantum field theory (QFT): a theoretical framework that combines ...
An international team of researchers has found a surprisingly simple relationship between the rates of energy and information transmission across an interface connecting two quantum field theories.
This book presents a comprehensive and coherent account of the theory of quantum fields on a lattice, an essential technique for the study of the strong and the electroweak interactions of elementary ...
Researchers say they may have achieved Einstein's vision of a "unified field theory" that can unite two of nature's ...
A century since Werner Heisenberg changed the course of physics, five of the world's leading physicists examine the greatest ...
Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity, which explains what happens when things move very fast – to create what are known as quantum field theories. Three different quantum field ...
A new theory links gravity to quantum entropy and introduces the G-field, possibly explaining dark matter and cosmic ...
including string theory, classical and quantum gravity, quantum field theory, holography, quantum information theory, hard condensed matter theory, quantum statistical mechanics, theoretical cosmology ...
quantum field theory, and/or quantum many-body physics. Students can get credit for either PHYS.6165 or for PHYS.6150/PHYS.6160 Sequence.
