Quantum gravity is the missing link between general relativity and quantum mechanics, the yet-to-be-discovered key to a ...

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

In a new Physical Review Letters study, researchers propose an experimental approach that could finally determine whether ...

A new recipe for gravity could help solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. It suggests that the concept of "quantum gravity" could arise from entropy, possibly solving puzzles put forth ...

This theory tries to reconcile Einstein’s theory of general relativity (which sees gravity as a warping of spacetime) with quantum theory (which views the universe as being made of extremely ...

General relativity and quantum mechanics are two highly successful theories. The former explains gravity and the latter teams up with special relativity to describe the other three forces of ...

The study, titled "Gravity from Entropy," introduces a novel approach that derives gravity from quantum relative entropy, bridging the gap between two of the most fundamental yet seemingly ...

Physicists hope that understanding the churning region near singularities might help them reconcile gravity and quantum mechanics. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a ...

Besides quantum theory, general relativity is one of two pillars of modern physics – our working theory of gravity and of the very large, of planets, galaxies and the universe as a whole.

Physicists have proposed a radical approach that questions decades of belief about how gravity, spacetime, and quantum mechanics might fit together. They have introduced a theory that keeps the ...
