Researchers have simulated "false vacuum decay," a theoretical quantum process often called the "bubble of doom" that could ...

We consider a vacuum to be the lowest energy state of the Universe. But it's possible that there's an even lower-energy, more ...

Noncommutative Quantum Field Theory represents an ambitious extension of standard quantum field theory that incorporates a fundamental noncommutativity in the structure of spacetime. In these models, ...

An old puzzle in particle physics has been solved: How can quantum field theories be best formulated on a lattice to optimally simulate them on a computer? The answer comes from AI. Subscribe to our ...

Once a baffling theory, quantum mechanics has evolved into a driving force behind modern technology and frontier research.

Physicists have modelled a quantum mechanism that can result in the end of the universe through the mechanism of false vacuum ...

Quantum gravity remains one of the big missing pieces of a Grand Unified Theory that could bridge quantum field theory and general relativity. Knowing that quantum gravity solutions must resemble ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

Quantum field theory (QFT) provides a comprehensive framework for describing the fundamental interactions of matter and radiation. In the context of atom‐field interactions, QFT elucidates how atoms ...
