To understand the universe in the state that it began in, the so-called Big Bang, we need laws of physics that work better than our current set of rules and procedures, which break down when we try to push them back to the beginning. David Gross backbangbegin share on social
Reading history, one rarely gets the feeling of the true nature of scientific development, in which the element of farce is as great as the element of triumph. David Gross developmentelementfarce Change image and share on social
When I was at Berkeley, the framework of quantum field theory could calculate the dynamics of electromagnetism. It could roughly describe the motion of the weak nuclear force, radiation. But it hit a brick wall with the strong interaction, the binding force. David Gross berkeleybindbrick share on social
