Integral challenges physics beyond Einstein

2011-06-30

ESA's Integral gamma-ray observatory has provided results that will dramatically affect the search for physics beyond Einstein.

Einstein's General Theory of Relativity describes the properties of gravity and assumes that space is a smooth, continuous fabric. Yet quantum theory suggests that space should be grainy at the smallest scales, like sand on a beach. One of the great concerns of modern physics is to marry these two concepts into a single theory ...
