A team of physicists have proposed a new idea for uniting quantum mechanics and gravity, which they believe could explain the ...

A new physics paper proposes modifications to Einstein’s theory of relativity that could solve one of the biggest issues ...

A Gravity Theory That Could Rewrite the Universe’s First Moments The first fraction of a second after the Big Bang has always ...

Researchers at IPhT (CEA, CNRS) and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona have shown that gravity—and with it, ...

Most current models of the Big Bang rely on general relativity along with additional elements that are introduced to make the theory fit observations. In contrast, this new framework provides a more ...

A new experiment with momentum-entangled helium atoms could help unite quantum mechanics and general relativity.

The Big Bang refers to that gigantic explosion responsible for setting up the universe to grow into the world we observe ...

Now it seems that wormholes, those shortcut tunnels through time and space that Albert Einstein theorized and that science fiction depicts as portals between two distant galactic points, are at the ...

Scientists show helium atoms can exist in two places at once, preserving quantum behavior even as they fall under gravity.
