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 ...

Research findings are available online in the journal Science Advances. The original story “ Physicists use pulses of light ...

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

The image depicts an experiment in which heavy particles(illustrated as the moon), cause an interference pattern (a quantum effect), while also bendingspacetime. The ...

Overview: Quantum Physics for Beginners by Carl J. Pratt simplifies core ideas like wave-particle duality and entanglement, making it ideal for first-time reade ...

Quantum entanglement can link two objects even when they are separated by extremely large distances. But a new study has found a limit at which such quantum correlations stop – and surprisingly, ...

Charles H. Bennett and Gilles Brassard, winners of this year’s Turing Award, spent their lives touting the advantages of the ...

So, what exactly is quantum theory in physics? It sounds super complicated, right? Like something only geniuses ...

A new study published in Nature Physics introduces a theory of electron-phonon coupling that is affected by the quantum geometry of the electronic wavefunctions. The movement of electrons in a lattice ...

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 ...
