A post-quantum theory of gravity that might bridge physics’ divide
New Scientist describes Jonathan Oppenheim’s proposal that space-time isn’t governed by quantum theory, challenging the mainstream view of gravity.
TLDR
New Scientist reports that physicist Jonathan Oppenheim is betting space-time, and therefore gravity, isn’t governed by quantum theory. That runs against the mainstream view that gravity must ultimately be quantum. His post-quantum model might help reconcile gravity with quantum physics, while his calculations suggest it could offer clues about dark matter.
