The search for quantum gravity is the next big step in physics, as researchers seek to unify the physics of the very small ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

The worldline formalism presents an elegant and computationally efficient approach to quantum field theory, recasting field interactions in terms of first-quantised particle paths. By utilising path ...
