John McGreevy is Professor of Physics at the University of California, San Diego. He is a theoretical physicist with interests in quantum matter, string theory, and ...
How do you calculate infinite quantum outcomes? Feynman Diagrams. The equations of quantum field theory allow us to calculate the behaviour of subatomic particles by expressing them as vibrations in ...
From Fundamental Concepts to Dynamical Mechanisms, by Wolfgang Bietenholz and Uwe-Jens Wiese, Cambridge University Press.
The search for quantum gravity is the next big step in physics, as researchers seek to unify the physics of the very small ...
Quantum mechanics is perhaps the most unintuitive theory ever devised. And yet it’s also the most successful, in terms of sheer predictive power. Simply by following the math of quantum mechanics, ...
What is a quantum field and how does it interact with matter? originally appeared on Quora: the place to gain and share knowledge, empowering people to learn from others and better understand the ...
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 ...
Unifying gravity and quantum theory remains a significant goal in modern physics. Despite the success in unifying all other fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, strong force and weak force) ...
Mean-field theory and semiclassical methods constitute vital frameworks in contemporary quantum mechanics. By replacing the intricate web of particle interactions with an average or “mean” field, mean ...
Why quantum theory is just like magic (and Einstein deserves more credit in this field than he gets)
Einstein and the Quantum Revolutions Alain Aspect Univ. Chicago Press (2024) French physicist Alain Aspect is a pioneer in ‘quantum entanglement’ — connections between the quantum properties of ...
The recent confirmation of gravity waves observed by the LIGO project represents a huge breakthrough in physics, verifying Albert Einstein's predictions regarding the effect of mass on space and time ...
Quantum field theory marries the ideas of other quantum theories to depict all particles as “excitations” that arise in underlying fields. The British physicist Paul Dirac started the ball rolling in ...
