Looping the loop.
This article focuses on the emergence of a new universal theory in physics, loop quantum gravity. Physicists, who assume the universe must be governed by a single set of rules, have dealt with two sets: quantum mechanics and general relativity. Until recently, it had been thought that string theory...

Physicists, who assume the universe must be governed by a single set of rules, have dealt with two sets: quantum mechanics and general relativity. Until recently, it had been thought that string theory would reconcile these two descriptions. Loop quantum theory was devised by Abhay Ashtekar and further developed by Lee Smolin and Carlo Rovelli. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2006 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
