String Theory Can Now Describe a Universe That Has Dark Energy
SMRTR summary
String theorists have struggled to create models matching our universe since dark energy's 1998 discovery, as this positive energy causing accelerating cosmic expansion conflicts with their best-understood theories. New research now demonstrates that string theory can successfully describe a universe containing dark energy, potentially bridging the gap between fundamental physics and observed reality.
