Quantum theory is often sold as a story about tiny particles, but its real disruption lands squarely on our everyday sense of ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum ...

For more than a century, physicists have been trying to reconcile the smooth geometry of gravity with the jittery ...

Quantum theory – our best understanding of the world at the smallest level – is famously weird and notoriously confusing. It’s a theory that seems to say particles can be in two places at once, or ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

Olival Freire Jr is a professor of physics and the history of physics at the Federal University of Bahia, Brazil. What makes matter stable? Why are atoms as they are? Why do different materials vary ...

Consciousness is fundamental; only thereafter do time, space and matter arise. This is the starting point for a new theoretical model of the nature of reality, presented by Maria Strømme, Professor of ...

With the help of a new experiment, researchers at Linköping University, among others, have succeeded in confirming a ten-year-old theoretical study, which connects one of the most fundamental aspects ...

It was already a mind-bending shift, last century, to go from Isaac Newton’s absolute space and universal time to Albert Einstein’s four-dimensional space-time, which is dynamic, flexible, sensitive ...

A century-old debate ends as physicists prove Einstein wrong using single photons to test quantum theory with unprecedented ...
