The Universe, where space-time becomes discrete

(International School of Advanced Studies (SISSA)) A theoretical study just published in Physical Review Letters and led by SISSA in Trieste has analyzed a model that saves special relativity and reconciles it with granularity by introducing small-scale deviations from the principle of locality demonstrating that it can be experimentally tested with great precision. The team is already collaborating on developing an experiment, which will take place at the LENS (European Laboratory for Non-linea
