The Milky Way galaxy contains 30 total galaxies. Three of them are on a collision course. GAMA RAY BURSTS might wipe out all life in its host galaxy. That now seems pessimistic because the latest evidence shows that GRBs focus their energy along two narrow beams like...

Right now, it depends on WHO is doing the counting. Quantum field theory (QFT) is a theoretical framework that combines classical field theory, special relativity, and quantum mechanics. QFT is used in particle physics to construct physical models of subatomic...
Quantum field theory, a revolutionary concept, challenges our traditional understanding of particles. It suggests that the entities we’ve long considered as ‘things’—protons, neutrons, and quarks—are not fundamental entities. Instead, according to...
