In 1887, one of the most important experiments in the history of physics took place. American scientists Michelson and Morley ...

At the turn of the century, it sounded as if string theory could give us big answers about the universe. Well… has it?

Quantum field theory (QFT) remains the cornerstone of our understanding of particle interactions, unifying the principles of quantum mechanics with special relativity by describing particles as ...

The study of scalar field theory lies at the heart of modern theoretical physics, providing a framework to explore fundamental interactions through fields characterised by a single value at each point ...

Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

To Ian VanDam, fashion isn’t just about clothing—it’s identity. His business, Field Theory (8153 Big Bend, Webster Groves), isn’t just a store—it’s a community. So it should come as no surprise that ...

The unitary field theory, linking gravitation with electromagnetism, the latest contribution to science of Prof. Albert Einstein, was the subject of sermons in several New York Christian churches on ...

Quantum Field Theory, As Simply As Possible is delivered with humour and erudition by Anthony Zee. What better way to get the little grey cells going than by unifying quantum mechanics and special ...
