The story begins with the black hole information paradox. According to relativity, anything that falls into a black hole is ...

Researchers have built a small but powerful detector to find gravitational waves in a hidden frequency range. The discovery ...

“A theory that coherently describes all fundamental forces of nature is often called the Theory of Everything,” Aalto University postdoctoral researcher Mikko Partanen said. It has been the physicists ...

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

Forget the Turing test. In Sam Altman's world, the only verdict that matters comes from physicist David Deutsch.

A network of optical cavities could be used to detect gravitational waves (GWs) in an unexplored range of frequencies, according to researchers in the UK. Using technology already within reach, the ...
