I don't think about a theory of everything when I do my research. And even if we knew the ultimate underlying theory,… — Lisa Randall Copy Share Image
The next big accelerator might be the ILC in Japan, a linear collider which might be able to probe the boundaries of… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
Very much, string theory is simply a work in progress. What we are inching toward every day are predictions that within the… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“I had to get back to dealing with facts. One fact was that something bizarre was going on, but I'd be far… — Hilary Duff Copy Share Image
Technically you need the extra dimensions. At first people didn't like them too much, but they've got a big benefit, which is… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
One very important aspect of string theory is definitely testable. That was the prediction of supersymmetry, which emerged from string theory in… — Edward Witten Copy Share Image
The idea that excites me the most concerns the two greatest puzzles in science: the origin of the universe, and the origin… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
In the book, I make the point that here we have string theory and here we have twistor theory and we don't… — Roger Penrose 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
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
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
The full name of string theory is really superstring theory. The 'super' stands for this feature called supersymmetry, which, without getting into… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
Modern thinking is that time did not start with the big bang, and that there was a multiverse even before the big… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
String theory has the potential to show that all of the wondrous happenings in the universe - from the frantic dance of… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“Theoretical physicists are Platonists. Until the last few years, they believed that the entire universe, the one universe, was generated from a… — Alan Lightman Copy Share Image
Time travel and teleportation will have to wait. It may take centuries to master these technology. But within the coming decades, we… — Michio Kaku Copy Share Image
“This unification of forces and motion has a simple consequence. In a particle theory, you can freely add all kinds of forces,… — Lee Smolin Copy Share Image
“Every culture has its own creation myth, its own cosmology. And in some respects every cosmology is true, even if I might… — Dennis J. McKenna 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
The beauty of science is to imagine more than we can prove. And string theory gives you a radically different interpretation of… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
The best theory comes from string theory, which states that dark matter is nothing but a higher vibration of the string. We… — Michio Kaku 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
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
One of the main successes of string theory is that it has been able to unify the general theory of relativity, which… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
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
One of the strangest features of string theory is that it requires more than the three spatial dimensions that we see directly… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
“There is much unexplained in the world. It behoves one to be wary at all times. Just when you think you've got… — Jasper Fforde Copy Share Image
According to String Theory, what appears to be empty space is actually a tumultuous ocean of strings vibrating at the precise frequencies… — Roy H. Williams Copy Share Image
String theory is not the only theory that can accommodate extra dimensions, but it certainly is the one that really demands and… — Brian Greene Copy Share Image
My emotional investment is in finding truth. If string theory is wrong, I'd like to have known that yesterday. But if we… — Brian Greene 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
The beauty of string theory is that it is all about mathematics. For that, you don't need resources or labs. Just sit… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
“According to string theory in quantum mechanics the core of energy and matter on a subatomic level is a vibrating, string-like filament… — Russell Anthony Gibbs Copy Share Image
General relativity is the cornerstone of cosmology and astrophysics. It has also provided the conceptual basis for string theory and other attempts… — Paul Davies Copy Share Image
As you say, the way string theory requires all these extra dimensions and this comes from certain consistency requirements about how string… — Roger Penrose Copy Share Image
“The universe as a giant harpstring, oscillating in and out of existence! What note does it play, by the way? Passages from… — Ursula K. Le Guin Copy Share Image
The most important single thing about string theory is that it's a highly mathematical theory, and the mathematics holds together in a… — Leonard Susskind 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
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
“I take out my book, glad to have a few minutes to study the diagram on time travel and string theory. But… — Wendy Mass Copy Share Image
