💡The energy density of empty space has different predictions in general relativity and the Standard Model.
🧲General relativity predicts a small energy density known as dark energy.
⚛️The Standard Model predicts a significantly larger energy density due to the presence of quantum fields.
🔭The discrepancy between the predictions of general relativity and the Standard Model suggests a fundamental gap in our understanding of gravity and the quantum world.
🔬The mystery of the energy density of empty space presents an intriguing challenge for physicists to solve.
