Gravity has become an unlikely viral villain, blamed for an imagined global blackout in which the planet briefly lets go of ...

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

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

The secret to directly detecting dark matter might be blowin’ in the wind. The mysterious substance continues to elude scientists even though it outweighs visible matter in the universe by about 8 to ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

A unified Theory Of Everything is the holy grail of physics, but gravity refuses to play ball. Now, a newly proposed theory attempts to unify Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics – and ...

Gravity can turn itself into light, but only if space-time behaves in just the right way, a research team has found. Under normal circumstances, you cannot get something from nothing. Specifically, ...

Artistic representation of the implemented photonic experiment in which entanglement between the polarizations of single photons is mediated by the independent degree of freedom of the photon path.

Physics experiments have changed the world irrevocably, altering our reality and enabling us to take gigantic leaps in technology. From ancient times to now, here's a look at some of the greatest ...

(via PBS Space Time) If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple theories that claim to do this, but it’s notoriously ...

George Musser’s new book finds resonances between the science of the latest wonder materials and string theory, quantum gravity, and the origins of space and time A new short volume by veteran science ...
