#Physicists find evidence that the universe isn't perfectly uniform — potentially unraveling a 100-year-old model of #cosmology
The universe may not be perfectly uniform after all. The analyses revealed mild-but-intriguing deviations from the predictions of the #standardmodel. "We saw a surprising violation of an FLRW curvature consistency test, hinting at new #physics beyond the standard model," study co-author Asta Heinesen reports.

"Researchers at Aalto University published a new quantum theory of gravity in 2025 that describes gravity in a way compatible with the Standard Model, using four one-dimensional unitary gauge symmetries. They're presenting it openly for the community to stress-test. Could be real, could be another dead end but it's getting serious attention."

This is way above my pay grade, and I've only read the article, not the actual technical work underneath it (because my maths is insufficient to know what it's talking about, so there's not a lot of point). But it sounds really interesting.

https://muellerberndt.medium.com/how-observer-path-holography-improves-on-the-standard-model-and-general-relativity-c971c376027e

I've never heard of "observer patch holography" (note typo in slug text), but a theoretical framework which has just a single free variable but lets you derive general relativity and the standard model, correctly predicting a bunch of magic numbers that we input as free variables into the standard model, is interesting as hell.

Maybe someone smarter than me has already looked at this and debunked it. Sabine doesn't seem to have done a video on it (or I missed it). And "one guy with four information theory axioms solves all of physics' problems" is definitely on the Hollywood-script end of the plausibility scale, but who knows? Weirder things have happened.

@cenobyte - thought of you, of course.

The last two days of the Aspen winter conference on “Paving the Way to New Discoveries in Particle Physics” ended with some pretty interesting stuff. From questions about sources of ultra-high-energy neutrinos to implications for the Standard Model from quantum information theory, this conference did not disappoint.

#Axions have a double motivation: they solve the 'strong CP problem' of the #StandardModel of elementary #Particles & they are a candidate for the #DarkMatter of the #Universe. The discovery of axions would answer many questions about dark matter & other #ParticlePhysics mysteries. Axions are also predicted by #StringTheory, or the idea that all the forces & particles in the universe are tied together as part of the same framework.
