Space-Time is Constantly Moving, Physicists Say
May 15, 2017 by News Staff / Source
A team of researchers from the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of British Columbia, Canada, has tackled the question ‘what causes the slow accelerating expansion of the Universe’ in a study that tries to resolve a major incompatibility issue between two theories: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of general relativity.
The study, published in the journal Physical Review D, suggests that if we zoomed in-way in-on the Universe, we would realize it’s made up of constantly fluctuating space and time.
“Space-time is not as static as it appears, it’s constantly moving,” said lead author Qingdi Wang, a Ph.D. student at the University of British Columbia.
