Physicists are preparing an experiment that sounds like science fiction: a device designed to snare individual particles of ...

With support from the W. M. Keck Foundation, a Stevens–Yale collaboration is now transforming graviton detection from a ...

Scientists aim to build the first graviton detector to explore gravity's quantum nature, despite significant challenges.

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold new line of research now argues that gravity is not fundamental at all, ...

We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

To progress to the next level in understanding reality, we need to combine quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

Assam scientists explore the Sun's movements, revealing how slight gravity changes can influence energy flow and stability.

Quantum gravity seeks a consistent framework to merge the principles of quantum mechanics with general relativity, addressing the challenges of formulating a quantum field theory for the gravitational ...
