In quantum gravity, the cosmological constant may behave similar to the quantum Hall effect

Trying to solve quantum gravity is frustrating. We have made tremendous progress in quantum theory, but it seems that every ...

Is gravity a new type of force that arises from cosmic entropy?

There are some things in life that just sort of happen. Desks get covered in dust and scraps of paper. Clothes get dirty and the laundry basket fills up. Weeds slowly creep across an untended ...
