Physicists Reveal a Quantum Geometry That Exists Outside of Space and Time
...Coke and an inexhaustible enthusiasm for physics. Arkani-Hamed and his collaborators aspire to bring about a conceptual revolution of the sort that rocked physics in the late 1700s. Joseph-Louis Lagrange...
If the Universe Is a Hologram, This Long-Forgotten Math Could Decode It
...the tantalizing possibility that physicists could do an end run around physics they don’t understand (quantum gravity in the bulk) by using only physics they do understand (quantum field theory)....
The Two Faces of Space-Time
A mysterious phenomenon known as duality often leads to new discoveries in physics. This time, space-time itself can sometimes be two things at once. Anyone who has seen the classic...
The Logic That Must Lie Behind a New Physics
...the more fundamental physics — space-time depends on the physics of quantum gravity. That would be demonstrated if general relativity is derivable from quantum gravity. But space-time and its behavior...
John Wheeler Saw the Tear in Reality
Until his dying days, the giant of 20th-century physics obsessed over the underpinnings of space and time, and how we can all share the same version of them. Back in...
Space-Time: The Biggest Problem in Physics
...the University of Pennsylvania, takes us on a journey through space-time to investigate what it’s made of, why it’s failing us, and where physics can go next. Emily Buder/Quanta Magazine...
Can Thermodynamics Go Quantum?
...might mean in the age of quantum mechanics. The principles of thermodynamics are cornerstones of our understanding of physics. But they were discovered in the era of steam-driven technology, long...
Novel Architecture Makes Neural Networks More Understandable
...Wetzel, a researcher at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics. “When we scale them up to larger data sets, nothing can compete.” And yet, all this time, neural networks have...
The First Nuclear Clock Will Test if Fundamental Constants Change
...the transition to observe whether the laws of physics vary over time, as predicted by many theories of fundamental physics. Thanks to an apparently accidental, nearly exact cancellation of two...
