This theory suggests that reality is not fully fixed in advance but becomes progressively defined through observation and interaction with gravitational potentials: Do decoherence, gravity, dark matter and dark energy all originate from quantum corrections?
* The author proposes that dark matter and dark energy are not physical substances, but rather effective phenomena arising from quantum corrections to gravity.
* Using the Wigner–Moyal equation, the study suggests that higher-order quantum terms act as additional forces depending on the observer's resolution of phase space.
* The research interprets "dark matter" as these quantum-corrected forces appearing in high-curvature environments like galaxies.
* The model accounts for "dark energy" by suggesting that reduced gravitational potential at cosmic distances causes a transition toward classical dynamics, mimicking accelerated expansion.
* This framework aims to explain relativistic effects and galactic rotation curves without invoking new particles or mathematical singularities.

Physicists suggest time may not be a fundamental aspect of reality but an emergent property from quantum entanglement. A study published in Physical Review A proposes the Page and Wootters mechanism, where time emerges through the entanglement between a clock and the system it measures, offering a potential resolution to the inconsistency of time in quantum mechanics and general relativity.
