For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

A hundred years ago, quantum mechanics was a radical theory that baffled even the brightest minds. Today, it's the backbone of technologies that shape our lives, from lasers and microchips to quantum ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

In an effort to solve the riddle of why we have subjective conciousness, scientists have develop myriad theories, including ones involving the quantum realm. A new theory suggests that consciousness ...

Quantum theory has long treated time as a silent backdrop, a parameter that never jitters even as particles flicker in and ...

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 ...

The team examined the remnant black hole’s “Kerr nature”, the mathematical description of a rotating black hole in general relativity. By analyzing the dominant quadrupolar mode and its overtone, they ...
