Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human ...

Scientists seeking the secrets of the universe would like to make a model that shows how all of nature’s forces and particles fit together. It would be nice to do it with Legos. But perhaps a better ...

In this video, we explore the relationship between string theory and quantum field theory (QFT). QFT is a mathematical ...

Natural physical networks are continuous, three-dimensional objects, like the small mathematical model displayed here.

Recent theoretical advances continue to uncover profound interconnections between string theory and disparate areas of pure mathematics, notably modular forms, finite groups and vertex operator ...

In an unprecedented step, researchers crafted a detailed model compatible with the universe’s accelerated expansion.

Three decades ago, a British documentary series named Connections aired, which showed viewers how various scientific achievements and discoveries were really interrelated, no matter how disparate they ...

String theory attempts to unify all forces and particles in the universe using vibrating strings. It aims to explain the Standard Model of particle physics, which is incomplete. String theory predicts ...
