In this, his supervisor, Max Born, spots a key truth of quantum mechanics (see “Carlo Rovelli on what we get wrong about the origins of quantum theory”). > 1926 Erwin Schrödinger develops an ...

Her study, published in Physical Review D, proposes an innovative approach connecting gravity and quantum mechanics. Representation of the action of entropic quantum gravity. Credit: Physical Review D ...

For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with those of general relativity. While quantum mechanics governs the behavior of particles at the smallest ...

In their paper published in Science Advances, the group explains that their experiment was meant to demonstrate that quantum mechanics is more nonclassical than thought. Quantum mechanics involves ...

How could Arrhenius understand the basics of the greenhouse effect before quantum mechanics was even discovered? It started with Joseph Fourier, a French mathematician and physicist who realized ...

Quantum mechanics and classical physics don’t always get along, and can sometimes form apparent paradoxes where observed quantum behavior violates well-established physical laws. In quantum ...

What does quantum mechanics, the most successful theory ever proposed by physics, teach us about reality? The starting point for most philosophers of physics is that quantum mechanics must somehow ...

You can do strange things with quantum mechanics. William Unruh, University of British Columbia Bob can’t extract more energy than Alice put in, so energy is conserved. And he lacks the necessary ...
