Could cosmic memory explain dark matter, dark energy, and black holes?
Physicists are proposing a new framework called the quantum memory matrix (QMM) to reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics. The theory suggests that spacetime is composed of discrete cells that record information, potentially explaining phenomena like black holes and dark matter.
Why it matters
This theoretical framework attempts to solve one of the most significant contradictions in modern physics, potentially reshaping our understanding of the fundamental nature of the universe.
For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the bending of space and time.
The article presents a scientific hypothesis and theoretical physics concepts in a neutral, explanatory manner.
