A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to be folded neatly into the quantum rules that govern the rest of nature. Now a convergence of bold ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

A long-standing challenge in physics has been to integrate gravity into the Standard Model, which successfully describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces. The difficulty lies in the ...

Quantum gravity remains one of the foremost challenges in theoretical physics, seeking to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with the geometric understanding of spacetime envisaged by ...

Quantum gravity seeks a consistent framework to merge the principles of quantum mechanics with general relativity, addressing the challenges of formulating a quantum field theory for the gravitational ...

Gravitational waves may leave a permanent timing gap in light, revealing how gravity preserves information through a memory ...

Einstein–Rosen bridges may reflect a two-directional structure of time that preserves information and hints at a pre–Big Bang universe.

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Entropy. The word itself should cause insomnia. It means that matter and energy will degrade—ultimately leading to chaos in the universe—if things ...

A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept of quantum gravity does not exist. The idea comes from two London-based ...
