With that in mind, have you considered that our entire universe may actually be suspended in a "false vacuum," or in a state of faux-stability, and is on the precipice of violently transitioning into an even more stable state? Because scientists studying quantum field theory — a framework that combines quantum mechanics, relativity, and basically all of physics — definitely have. And in a new study published in the journal Nature, researchers have simulated the processes behind this […]
