String theory may be our best attempt at a theory of everything, except that it can't describe an expanding universe like ...

Together, they are finding common ground, where string theory can be applied to the physics of quark–gluon plasma. High-energy accelerators usually collide particles such as electrons or protons ...

For decades now, many physicists have pursued the hope that equations involving an especially tiny "string" could provide the ...

String theory is perhaps the most high-profile candidate for what physicists call a theory of everything – a single mathematical framework capable of describing the entirety of the known universe.

String theory has its supporters and its gainsayers among theoretical physicists. Even advocates admit that the theory could be entirely wrong (though naturally they don't think it is).

After writing a 400-page book on string theory and then helping NOVA translate that book into a three-hour documentary, would Brian Greene, we wondered, have anything more to say about string theory?

WIRED is where tomorrow is realized. It is the essential source of information and ideas that make sense of a world in constant transformation. The WIRED conversation illuminates how technology is ...

Theoretical physicist Michio Kaku explains why he thinks string theory is the best way to understand how the universe works. Consumer inflation expectations could creep into the Federal Reserve's ...

String Theory at the Hunter, in partnership with Lee University and the Hunter Museum of American Art, will close out the ...
