Quantum field theory (QFT) provides a comprehensive framework for describing the fundamental interactions of matter and radiation. In the context of atom‐field interactions, QFT elucidates how atoms ...

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Just in time for the holidays, the team of quantum computing experts at Q-CTRL have released the first interactive, online learning platform called Black Opal for anyone ...

Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other ...

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the ...

For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the laws governing the very small with those that describe the vast ...

A theoretical study suggests that gravity could have quantum effects without itself being a quantum theory. Other researchers ...

A rift runs deep through the heart of physics. The general theory of relativity, which describes gravity, clashes with quantum physics. In an effort to seal that physics fissure, untold numbers of ...

What happens when matter transitions from one phase to another—a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas? Describing these critical points precisely, in solvable mathematical terms, is no simple feat.

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.
