String theory is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for what physicists call a theory of everything – a single ...

However, many ideas that go beyond the Standard Model and General Relativity — such as string theory or most manifestations of quantum gravity — could break this symmetry, with consequences ...

Generations of researchers have tried to create a quantum theory of gravity, and their work has produced sophisticated ...

With contributions by Dr. G. N. R. Tripathi NOTRE DAME, IN / ACCESS Newswire / August 23, 2025 / For the first time, ...

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

String theory is extremely complicated and, to make matters worse, it's proving itself very difficult to verify. However, scientists at the Imperial College London and Stanford University now ...

Scientists have long sought evidence to refute string theory, but a new test seeks to disprove key aspects with help from the Large Hadron Collider.

Scientists hope to find clues of the next big theory there, the one to bridge the chasm between quantum mechanics and relativity. The most discussed and debated idea is string theory but others ...

Quantum gravity? String theory. Electron mass? String theory. Strength of the forces? String theory. Dark energy? String theory. Speed of light? String theory. It's such a tempting, beautiful idea.
