The standard model of particle physics describes forces and particles very well, but when you throw gravity into the equation, it all falls apart. You have to fudge the figures to make it work. — Lisa Randall Copy Share Image
Physicists are interested in measuring neutrino properties because they tell us about the structure of the Standard Model, the well-tested theory that describes matter's most basic elements and interactions. — Lisa Randall Copy Share Image
When you're reaching out to people beyond the scientific community, image does matter. — Lisa Randall Copy Share
Creativity is essential to particle physics, cosmology, and to mathematics, and to other fields of science, just as it is to its more widely… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
Physicists have yet to understand why the Higgs boson's mass is what it is, — Lisa Randall Copy Share
If such external influences are intrinsic to religion, then logic and scientific thought dictate that there must be a mechanism by which this influence… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
There is real confusion about what it means to be right and wrong - the difference between what spiritual beliefs are and what science… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
When I was in school I liked math because all the problems had answers. Everything else seemed very subjective. — Lisa Randall Copy Share
What makes me different as a scientist is that I'm kind of imaginative. The ideas just happen. — Lisa Randall Copy Share
There could be more to the universe than the three dimensions we are familiar with. They are hidden from us in some way, perhaps… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
There are many aspects of time we just do not understand. That’s the thing about writing a popular book: You realize the things you… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
We should figure out how to do this so that some parents don't feel disenfranchised, angry and upset. It says a lot about the… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
I did not set out to explain the extinction of the dinosaurs. I'm a particle physicist, and I was actually thinking about dark matter… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
I think simplicity is a good guide: The more economical a theory, the better. — Lisa Randall Copy Share
Speculation and the exploration of ideas beyond what we know with certainty are what lead to progress. — Lisa Randall Copy Share
Physics has entered a remarkable era. Ideas that were once the realm of science fiction are now entering our theoretical and maybe even… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
You have to be careful when you use beauty as a guide. There are many theories people didn't think were beautiful at the time… — Lisa Randall Copy Share
