In an effort to bring together the domains of gravity and quantum theory, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen proposed a ...
Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still daring to test it. Some theories of quantum gravity suggest light might ...
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, ...
For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...
Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...
Albert Einstein was right about a shocking among of things, but not necessarily everything.
In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...
Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time—shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a ...
A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone ...
