I would like to know SR/GR's opinion of QM/QFT.
SR thinks that QFT is sexy, and when they have gone out he felt that she was made for him, they were so compatible. GR went out with her a couple of times too, but they didn’t hit it off so well.

Neither of them have tried to get anything going with QM, it would just be weird to try and date her and her daughter.

Lol, a interesting way to put it, I realize SR + QFT = RQFT, more details would be nice on how so...

Both sides of the story belong in the other thread you already started, since that is what the Beyond the Standard Model forum is for. Discussions in this forum should be limited to mainstream SR/GR. Accordingly, this thread is closed.

Thread 'Can this experiment break Lorentz symmetry?'

1. The Big Idea: According to Einstein’s relativity, all motion is relative. You can’t tell if you’re moving at a constant velocity without looking outside. But what if there is a universal “rest frame” (like the old idea of the “ether”)? This experiment tries to find out by looking for tiny, directional differences in how objects move inside a sealed box. 2. How It Works: The Two-Stage Process Imagine a perfectly isolated spacecraft (our lab) moving through space at some unknown speed V...

Thread '1-Way Speed of Light'

Does the speed of light change in a gravitational field depending on whether the direction of travel is parallel to the field, or perpendicular to the field? And is it the same in both directions at each orientation? This question could be answered experimentally to some degree of accuracy. Experiment design: Place two identical clocks A and B on the circumference of a wheel at opposite ends of the diameter of length L. The wheel is positioned upright, i.e., perpendicular to the ground...

Thread 'How can a black hole absorb matter?'

According to the General Theory of Relativity, time does not pass on a black hole, which means that processes they don't work either. As the object becomes heavier, the speed of matter falling on it for an observer on Earth will first increase, and then slow down, due to the effect of time dilation. And then it will stop altogether. As a result, we will not get a black hole, since the critical mass will not be reached. Although the object will continue to attract matter, it will not be a...
