Quantum gravity

St. Albert the Great, who was also known as Albert of Cologne,was a great thinker of his time. He was a great natural scientists, physicist, theologian, mathematician, chemist, geographer, and astronomer. St. Albert also was a teacher of St.Thomas Aquinas. St. Albert was born around 1200 AD. There is not much known about his childhood and birth, and many sources disagree on his early life. Research suggests he was sent to Padua University, while he was there he was taught in the writing of…

Inventor & Dreamer “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving” -- This is one of Albert Einstein’s quotes. Albert Einstein made a great impact on the world. He is credited with discovering a theory that found that gravity can affect time and space. He also made the atomic bomb when he was serving in the U.S. military to fight against the Germans in World War II (WWII) when he was getting targeted by Germany because he was Jewish, and the Germans were trying to…

Have you ever wondered, “Who discovered E=mc2?” The answer to that is Albert Einstein. Albert Einstein had impacted the world with his many discoveries in the field of physics. Though once regarded dull-witted as a small child, he is now known to others as one of the most intelligent individuals to ever live on the planet earth. Albert Einstein is easily the smartest scientist to ever live, and will always be remembered throughout history. Albert Einstein grew up differently than other people…

How do scientists know there are such things as atoms? The short answer is that they don’t. No one has ever seen an atom. However, there are many more ways to show that something could exist than to have ‘seen something’. The idea of the atom has been hypothesised since around 440BC, but the idea has only been widely accepted since the early 19 century, when the atomic theory was first proposed. Since then, our understanding of the atom has significantly developed. But why is the atom so widely…

Moving Target Defense The current cybersecurity environment is based around a static defense that has been employed for the past few years to protect information systems (See Figure 6). Unfortunately, this cybersecurity paradigm is not effective against current and future cyber threats. According to Zheng (2014), the weakness of this cybersecurity approach is its passive and reactive nature towards safeguarding information systems. Additionally, this method also allows threat actors the time…

could be affected, moved, or changed without being physically affected by another object, has raised different arguments throughout history. Some believe that action at a distance would describe all the uncertainties of quantum physics and would help us understand the unknowns of quantum mechanics. There have been varies experiments that support the claims of action at a distance and those who disagree and look to disprove this concept. One of the experiments that disproves the argument is the…

appearing everywhere, all the time, in the vacuum of quantum field theory?” The book is rich in apt analogies, as in Mr. Galfard’s description of electromagnetism as the exchange of virtual photons: “Pearls of light flash around you, exchanged between the magnet and the fridge, like a host of tiny angels dragging the two objects towards one another.” By the end, readers will have learned a great deal, although they might stumble explaining quantum field theory over cocktails. A second reading is…

no exception. While there have been many important contributions to advance science in the 20th century, the most important contributions have come from Stephen Hawking through his discovery of the idea of the Theory of Everything, his use of the quantum theory, and the creation of Hawking Radiation. Hawking contributed greatly to the scientific field by coming up with the idea of a “theory of everything”. By creating this idea, Hawking allowed scientists all around the world to discover new…

Actually Useful: Quantum Sciences Since the beginning of documented history, humans have misjudged things as either harmful, stupid, or useless. Although quantum sciences are hard to understand, they are not stupid or useless. Quantum studies also lead to the betterment of society and the advancement of human life. Quantum sciences are neither useless nor wasteful theories; they affect us in many different ways like in technology, manufactured goods, and, surprisingly enough, exist in our…

Edward Witten was born into a jewish family, to his parents Lorraine and Lois Witten. His father was a specialist in gravity and general relativity, while his brother was a television producer. In 1971, Witten went to Brandeis University and received his BA, then in 1974 went on to princeton and received his MA and then in 1976, received his PhD. Witten went to the university of Wisconsin in Madison but ended up dropping out after only a semester. Witten started to study history like subjects,…
