In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

In 2021 an unconventional pair of collaborators embarked on a bold experiment. For two years Steven Rayan, a mathematician and mathematical physicist, and Jeff Presslaff, a freelance composer, pianist ...

John von Neumann came about as close as humanly possible to embodying the Platonic ideal of a genius. Conversant in ancient Greek by age 6, the Hungarian made significant mathematical advances in his ...

Recent decades have witnessed remarkable progress in establishing rigorous mathematical frameworks for quantum field theory (QFT), conformal field theory (CFT), quantum gravity and string theory.

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

Over the past decades, the mathematical formulation of physical theories has evolved to provide a unified framework that bridges classical mechanics, quantum mechanics and quantum information theory.

Quantum computing is slowly entering the mainstream, as more people discuss the technology and its potential within ...

Quantum mechanics. Quantum tunneling, Quantum computing. Quantum biology. The implications of the quantum world are extraordinary — and potentially intimidating to students trying to maintain a good ...

So darkly complex, so fabulously remote from the familiar things of human existence is science’s probing into the fundamental secretae of the universe—of light, electricity, gravity, matter—that the ...
