I like to think that Einstein would look at string theory’s journey and smile, enjoying the theory’s remarkable geometrical features while feeling… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“In string theory, the situation is very different. The law of motion dictates the laws of the forces. This is because all… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
Even before string theory, especially as physics developed in the 20th century, it turned out that the equations that really work in… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
Einstein comes along and says, space and time can warp and curve, that's what gravity is. Now string theory comes along and… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“For string theory to make sense, the universe should have nine spacial dimensions and one time dimension, for a total of ten… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
I just think too many nice things have happened in string theory for it to be all wrong. Humans do not understand… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
“Noncommutative geometry has turned up in several approaches to quantum gravity, including string theory, DSR, and loop quantum gravity. But none of… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
“This tells us that M theory, if it exists, cannot describe a world in which space os continuous and one can pack… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
There is much unexplained in the world. It behooves us to be wary at all times. Just when you think you've got… — Jasper Fforde Copy Share Image
To the extent that we even understand string theory, it may imply a massive number of possible different universes with different laws… — Lawrence M. Krauss Copy Share Image
I'd say many features of string theory don't mesh with what we observe in everyday life. — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
General relativity is in the old Newtonian framework where you predict what will happen, not the probability of what will happen. And… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
I came to realise that string theory offers us the best hope of finding a unified theory of all matter and forces. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
“Both loop quantum gravity and string theory assert that there is an atomic structure to space. In the next two chapters we… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
Quantum mechanics brought an unexpected fuzziness into physics because of quantum uncertainty, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. String theory does so again because… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
String theories, for instance, they require seven additional dimensions. So, as experimentalists we should, with our high-tech instruments like the Large Hadron… — Fabiola Gianotti Copy Share Image
String theory is based on the simple idea that all the four forces of the universe: gravity, the electromagnetic force and the… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
“(The string is extremely tiny, at the Planck length of 10 ^-33 cm, a billion billion times smaller than a proton, so… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
One problem of the String Theory is that it's kind of a theory which can explain what the problems are, but the… — Peter Woit Copy Share Image
Often, when I want to read something that is satisfying to me as theology, what I actually read is string theory, or… — Marilynne Robinson Copy Share Image
Superstring theories provide a framework in which the force of gravity may be united with the other three forces in nature: the… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
I work in string theory. This is a branch of physics which assumes that the elementary objects in the universe are not… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
“Finiteness is not the only example in string theory of a conjecture that is widely believed but so far unproved.” — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
So when you ask me how string theory might be tested, I can tell you what's likely to happen at accelerators or… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
