In this book, we analyze, from a self-taught perspective, the question, "Will there be a fundamental theory of the laws that govern the world we live in?" Shrouded in extreme abstraction embodied in self-described gobbledygook, accessible only to a trained practitioner, modern physics can seem like a capricious subject. Nevertheless, with perseverance, at least a rudimentary understanding of modern physics is available to the uninitiated spectator....

In physics there is a quest to find the mythical Grand Unified Theory. It was begun by Einstein and it is a belief that there exists a singular ultimate theory of Nature and physics. It has not been found. Its search consumes today's physics. It has seen radical ideas, novelties, research paths, experiments, and more to find it. It consumes legions of physicists worldwide. Here in this book, we will review discussion on this amazing mystery,...

Hurlburt Effect depicts the effect of total mass of unobservable space on quantum levels and radiation of the astrophysics big bang hole on the unobservable universe and the localized, observable big bang and observable universe. There were major shifts in mass and density of the structures of the earlier, larger unobservable universe with the unobservable universe's later, smaller big bang. The most surrounding space is the big bang hole which caused...

Physicist Stephen M. Barr's lucid Student's Guide to Natural Science aims to give students an understanding, in broad outline, of the nature, history, and great ideas of natural science from ancient times to the present, with a primary focus on physics. Barr begins with the contributions of the ancient Greeks, in particular the two great ideas that reality can be understood by the systematic use of reason and that phenomena have natural explanations....

No matter how far away they are, particles of energy or matter can get entangled and interact predictably with one another. This phenomenon is known as entanglement in quantum theory. In physics, the concept of entanglement refers to how particles of matter or energy can join up and interact predictably with one another, regardless of their distance from one another. Because of this inexplicable connection that they nevertheless maintain, particles,...
