  2. Unified field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_field_theory

    In physics, a unified field theory (UFT) is a type of field theory that allows all fundamental forces and elementary particles to be written in terms of a single type of field. According to modern discoveries in physics, forces are not transmitted directly between interacting objects but instead are described and interpreted by intermediary ...

  3. Theory of everything - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_everything

    A theory of everything (TOE), final theory, ultimate theory, unified field theory, or master theory is a hypothetical singular, all-encompassing, coherent theoretical framework of physics that fully explains and links together all aspects of the universe. [1]: 6 Finding a theory of everything is one of the major unsolved problems in physics. [2 ...

  4. Classical unified field theories - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_unified_field...

    Classical unified field theories are attempts to create a unified field theory based on classical physics. In particular, unification of gravitation and electromagnetism was actively pursued by several physicists and mathematicians in the years between the two World Wars. This work spurred the purely mathematical development of differential ...

  5. History of classical field theory - Wikipedia

    Attempts to create a unified field theory based on classical physics are classical unified field theories. During the years between the two World Wars , the idea of unification of gravity with electromagnetism was actively pursued by several mathematicians and physicists like Einstein, Theodor Kaluza , [ 18 ] Hermann Weyl , [ 19 ] Arthur ...

  7. Kaluza–Klein theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaluza–Klein_theory

    In physics, Kaluza–Klein theory (KK theory) is a classical unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism built around the idea of a fifth dimension beyond the common 4D of space and time and considered an important precursor to string theory. In their setup, the vacuum has the usual 3 dimensions of space and one dimension of time ...

  8. An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/An_Exceptionally_Simple...

    "An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything" [1] is a physics preprint proposing a basis for a unified field theory, often referred to as "E 8 Theory", [2] which attempts to describe all known fundamental interactions in physics and to stand as a possible theory of everything.

  9. Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Model

    Theoretical and experimental research has attempted to extend the Standard Model into a unified field theory or a theory of everything, a complete theory explaining all physical phenomena including constants. Inadequacies of the Standard Model that motivate such research include:
