In the physics of modernity, one of the largest tasks is to search for a method for describing phenomena both in space and in a microblem. For more than a hundred years to describe reality on a cosmic scale, we use the theory of common relativity, which has successfully passed a lot of checks.
Albert Einstein used the curvature of space-time to describe gravity. Despite the remaining questions regarding dark matter and dark energy, today this is considered the best method of analyzing the past and future of the Universe.
To describe phenomena at the atomic level, quantum mechanics are used, which is radically different from the overall relativity. She uses flat space-time and a completely different mathematical apparatus, and reality is perceived as a wave of probabilities of events measured with limited accuracy.
In an article published in the journal fontiers in physics , a method was presented to combine these descriptions leading to an unexpected conclusion.
Is it possible to level a curved space-time? It turns out that there is a mathematical object called Alena Tensor, which allows you to describe physical phenomena so that the curvature of space-time can be smoothly configured. In the curved space-time, this leads to Einstein’s equations, and in the flat – allows the use of classic methods of relativistic physics and amenable to a quantum description.
It is shown that such a “slider” of space-time works for gravity and electromagnetism, and Alena Tensor allows you to add additional fields. This creates the possibility of coordinating previously conflicting descriptions for other known fields.
The side effect of this method is that a certain element of the equation behaves as a cosmological constant in Einstein’s equations, which can help explain the nature of dark energy. The existence of additional power is also assumed besides gravity, which can help in explaining dark matter.
However, any beautiful discovery has its own price …
What is the universe around us? The conclusions of the article do not mean the end of work on the unification of two great theories. The proposed method requires further research and thorough adjustment of field descriptions. But this is undoubtedly a new hope and a promising direction for further research, so perhaps we will soon hear about a
