Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.
Few ideas in modern science have reshaped our understanding of reality more profoundly than space-time—the interwoven fabric ...
Ten events that would unfold if gravity suddenly vanished, beginning with the effects on our bodies and ending with the ...
Humans are unable to access all the dimensions. As we live in a 3D world, a new theory suggests the fourth dimension is the ...
Black hole and Big Bang singularities break our best theory of gravity. A trilogy of theorems hints that physicists must go to the ends of space and time to find a fix.
Deep in the first moments of the Big Bang, the entire cosmos shook and rumbled. Those quakes still reverberate to the present ...
What if gravity isn’t weirdly quantum at all, but rather … just a bit messy? The holy grail of theoretical physics is to find the long-sought theory of quantum gravity. But what if this theory ...
That is, instead of trying to give quantum properties to gravity, we should accept that gravity is fundamentally classical and try to understand how truly quantum matter can result in truly ...
A radical new theory regarding the origin of the universe suggests that gravitational waves, tiny ripples in spacetime first ...
Einstein’s theories on relativity transformed our understanding of space, time, and gravity, fundamentally changing the landscape of modern physics.
One way to longer life may be higher gravity—at least for rats. That is the "very tentative suggestion" of experiments performed by NASA Physiologist Jiro Oyama, who has been raising ...
Our results show that artificial gravity prevents the changes observed in mice subjected to microgravity, including muscle atrophy and changes in gene expression,” explained Prof. Takahashi.
