The research was done by Caltech’s Clifford Cheung and Aaron Hillman along with Grant Remmen at New York University. They ...

For decades, scientists have been looking for evidence of strings that connect everything in the universe. A new model offers ...

For decades now, many physicists have pursued the hope that equations involving an especially tiny "string" could provide the theory that solves nature's ultimate subatomic mysteries. String ...

String theory proclaims otherwise. According to string theory, if we could examine these particles with even greater precision—a precision many orders of magnitude beyond our present ...

Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider tested whether top quarks, the most massive known elementary particles, comply with ...

String Theory at the Hunter, in collaboration with Lee University and the Hunter Museum of American Art, will present a ...

String theory aims to explain all fundamental forces and particles in the universe—essentially, how the world operates on the smallest scales. Though it has not yet been experimentally verified ...

Differential cohomology and string theory are interconnected fields that explore the mathematical foundations of theoretical physics, particularly in the context of M-theory and string theory.

String theory has its supporters and its gainsayers among theoretical physicists. Even advocates admit that the theory could be entirely wrong (though naturally they don't think it is).

Together, they are finding common ground, where string theory can be applied to the physics of quark–gluon plasma. High-energy accelerators usually collide particles such as electrons or protons ...

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.

WIRED is where tomorrow is realized. It is the essential source of information and ideas that make sense of a world in constant transformation. The WIRED conversation illuminates how technology is ...
