String theory could reshape our understanding of the Universe’s accelerating expansion and unlock the mysteries of dark energy.
Results for "string theory"
String theory may offer an alternative to dark energy
A new study evaluates gravity using string theory, a promising candidate for describing particle interactions at their most fundamental level.
String theory used to describe the expanding universe
To address unknown quantum gravitational effects in the early universe, physicists have recruited string theory to help solve the problem.
String theory fuzzballs resolve famous black hole paradox
Scientists have turned to string theory to better understand black holes, proposing they can be modeled as “fuzzballs” made up of interacting strings.
A theory of frozen stars challenges our understanding of black holes
Linking string theory with observations, frozen stars shed new light on black holes and the clash between quantum mechanics and relativity.
Glimmers in the cosmic dawn: New observations challenge theory of supermassive black hole formation
Hubble’s deep near-infrared campaign reveals more supermassive black holes in the early universe than previously expected.
Gigantic cosmic strings may have spawned supermassive black holes and galaxies
Scientists theorize that cosmic strings interacting with dense matter in the early universe provided the seeds for galaxies and black holes.
A “dark dimension” could help explain the origin of dark energy
Scientists propose that mysterious dark energy could be understood if we look at the Universe through the lens of string theory.
