A team of researchers led by the University of Warwick has developed the first unified framework for detecting "spacetime ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the ...

In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

Quantum gravity remains one of the foremost challenges in theoretical physics, seeking to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with the geometric understanding of spacetime envisaged by ...

A recent study proposes that gravity, the force shaping galaxies and anchoring planets, might not be fundamental after all.

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum ...

A study involving quantum collapse model has shown that time is not uniform but has tiny fluctuations that put limits on its ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.
