ZA_2_04 — Loop Quantum Gravity: Spacetime as a Fabric of Quanta

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a leading approach to quantum gravity that quantizes spacetime itself — predicting that area and volume come in discrete Planck-scale quanta. Unlike string theory, LQG does not require extra

ZA_2_01 — Time: Physics and Philosophy

Time is arguably the deepest unsolved problem in physics and philosophy. Physics reveals: (1) time is relative, not absolute — Einstein showed it flows at different rates depending on velocity and gravity; (2) the fundam
