Seeking endorsements for her new book, Chanda Prescod-Weinstein finds herself staring at fundamental questions of space, time ...

Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.

What does it mean to be to space-time? The seemingly simple question gets to the essence of twentieth-century physics and has ...

The third Quantum Gravity conference took place at Penn State University from 21 to 25 July 2025, bringing together ...

Researchers at Hiroshima University have developed a realistic, highly sensitive method to detect the Unruh effect—a ...

The visible patterns produced by the time crystals could be used for data storage and anti-counterfeiting designs.

An international team of scientists has observed a never-before-seen exotic phase of matter on a quantum processor using ...

A decade ago, scientists first detected ripples in the fabric of space-time, called gravitational waves, from the collision ...

A hidden quantum geometry that distorts electron paths has finally been observed in real materials. This “quantum metric,” once thought purely theoretical, may revolutionize electronics, ...

Meet the artists who are translating the strangeness of quantum fields into uncanny art and otherworldly visual experiences.

For a century, quantum theory has passed every experimental test, but physicists can’t agree on how to use it to paint a picture of our reality – or even whether that is possible ...

A new calculation shows how five atoms interact in the Efimov effect. It marks a major leap in quantum physics. Matter behaves weirdly at the quantum scale, one of the strangest examples being the ...
