Researchers say they discovered observational evidence of string theory, which could turn everything we know about the ...

Last month, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collective reported that dark energy is evolving—specifically ...

String theory’s equations require that the universe has extra dimensions beyond the three of everyday experience—left/right, back/forth and up/down. Taking the math to heart, researchers ...

Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string ...

For decades now, many physicists have pursued the hope that equations involving an especially tiny "string" could provide the ...

For years, string theory has been the darling of theoretical physics—graceful, bold, and with just enough poetry to keep ...

The equations of string theory could give rise to elementary particles like those currently known (electrons, quarks, photons, etc.), but because detailed numerical predictions cannot yet be made ...

String theory is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for what physicists call a theory of everything – a single mathematical framework capable of describing the entirety of the known universe.

To address these inconsistencies, the researchers turned to string theory, one of the leading ... meaning the order in which coordinates appear in equations matters. This radical departure from ...

Earlier studies provided a rough picture of black holes, like a low-resolution image with 1,000 pixels. In contrast, ...

Supermazes” are theoretical structures that provide a fresh blueprint for understanding the microscopic complexity of black ...
