Imagine a juggler tossing balls into the air. The art of juggling is a dance between motion and pause, where the ball’s speed ...

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

A new recipe for gravity could help solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. It suggests that the concept of "quantum gravity" could arise from entropy, possibly solving puzzles put forth by ...

In this last part of our series on recently digitized books from the Wenner Collection, we are focusing on works that ...

The nature of quantum entanglement remains an outstanding problem in physics. But Albert Einstein's theories, along with insights from quantum computing, could finally put the mystery to rest. When ...

Ever since general relativity pointed to the existence of black holes, the scientific community has been wary of one peculiar feature: the singularity at the center—a point, hidden behind the event ...

GENEVA - A pillar of physics - that nothing can go faster than the speed of light - appears to be smashed by an oddball subatomic particle that has apparently made a giant end run around Albert ...

Carlo Rovelli is a physicist at Aix–Marseille University, Marseille, France, and an associate member of the Rotman Institute of Philosophy in London, Ontario, Canada. Nature seems to have played us ...

Before a beginners’ physics class at St. Louis’ Washington University, Assistant Professor Edward Lambe plugged in an electric device that shot pennies at a metal disk a few feet away. The pennies ...
