Claudia de Rham

Name: Claudia de Rham
Occupation: Physicist
Nationality: Swiss

Claudia de Rham is a Swiss theoretical physicist and a professor at Imperial College London, known for her groundbreaking work in the field of gravity and cosmology.

Claudia is best known for developing a theory called massive gravity. Unlike Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which treats gravity as a force carried by massless particles (gravitons), Claudia’s theory suggests that these particles might actually have a tiny mass. If true, this could change the way we understand how gravity operates across the universe—and help explain one of the biggest puzzles in physics: why the universe is expanding faster and faster.

In The Remarkablz Universe, Claudia's has ability to create objects and weapons out of dark energy. Claudia de Rham was born on Helion-7, a planet balanced on the edge of a black hole. As a child, she could feel the pulse of the cosmos—the invisible stretch of space caused by dark energy. While others feared it, Claudia learned to harness it.
