String theory

In his latest book, the Nobel Prize winner Steven Weinberg explores how science made the modern world, and where it might take us from here.

Researchers are on the trail of a mysterious connection between number theory, algebra and string theory.

If string theorists can show that their framework is the only consistent theory of quantum gravity, does that make it true even without tangible evidence?

New findings suggest that beneath the surface of quantum theory lies a vibrant string theory world where some matter corresponds to black holes in higher dimensions.
