Space is quantum in nature. Everything is made of quanta, or packets of energy. The quantum realm can also involve actions at long distances. We live in a quantum world.
In General Relativity, matter and energy tell space how to curve, whilecurved space tells matter and energy how to move. But in General Relativity, space and time are continuous and Non-quantized. All the other forces are known to be quantum in nature and require a quantum description to match reality. In physics, a quantum (plural quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity (physical property) involved in an interaction.
Quantization of energy and its influence on how energy and matter interact (quantum electrodynamics) is part of the fundamental framework for understanding and describing nature. everything is quantum, but not everything is discrete.
In Einstein’s relativity, space and time are still treated as two linked parts of continuous fabric. In quantum field theory, spacetime is the continuous stage on which the dance of the quanta takes place. Quantum mechanics suggests everything is made of quanta, or packets of energy, that can behave like both a particle and a wave—for instance, quanta of light are called photons. Detecting gravitons, the hypothetical quanta of gravity, would prove gravity is quantum. The curvature of space-time causes things to fall. The problem is that gravity is extraordinarily weak. We are still trying to find gravitational waves. Quantum mechanics needs to be folded into the general relativity theory. Loop quantum gravity The theory of loop quantum gravity, which aims to merge quantum mechanics and general relativity, incorporating the matter of the Standard Model into the framework established for pure quantum gravity. The Loops, Knots, Gauge Theories of Quantum Gravity need to be validated.
Causality in quantum theory: The cause-effect relationship can sometimes form cycles. This theory offers a novel understanding of exotic processes in which events do not have a definite causal order.
The fabric of space and time emerges from a network of quantum particles. Physicists have discovered that this works according to a principle called quantum error correction.
The speed of light is relative and constant. Einstein’s theory of general relativity states that mass is the same whether inertial or gravitational and so these types of movement are not altered by mass. Particles act just like waves. The electron propagates through space like a wave, it interacts at a point like a particle. This is known as wave–particle duality. Atoms, electrons, protons, and neutrons do behave like particles.
electrons, protons, and neutrons also behave like waves.
The electromagnetic force is carried by photons. Photons have no charge. Nevertheless, they do exert electrical and magnetic forces on charged particles and magnetic particles. Electromagnetic forces are transferred between charged particles through the exchange of massless, force–carrying bosons called photons. The strong nuclear force is 100 times stronger than the electromagnetic force.
The photon is a type of elementary particle. It is the quantum of the electromagnetic field including electromagnetic radiation such as light and radio waves and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force. Photons do not experience time.
