Quantum Gravity and the Quest for Unification
Speaker(s): Lee Smolin - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Abstract: Arguably, the most important issue in physics today is trying to unify the twin pillars of modern physics, quantum theory and general relativity, into a single theory known as quantum gravity. This introductory presentation will discuss various aspects of quantum gravity.

Could quantum mechanics be an approximation to another, cosmological, theory?
Speaker(s): Lee Smolin - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Abstract: We consider the hypothesis that quantum mechanics is an approximation to another, cosmological theory, accurate only for the description of subsystems of the universe. Quantum theory is then to be derived from the cosmological theory by averaging over variables which are not internal to the subsyste... read more
