A new study links the universe’s expansion to quantum topology, suggesting that hidden mathematical structures may stabilize ...

In quantum mechanics, particles do not behave like everyday objects. Instead of existing in one clearly defined state, they can occupy several possible states at once, a phenomenon known as ...

One of the best-performing models in cosmology is also one with the least physical rationale behind it. Columnist Leah Crane ...

The biggest open problem in the foundations of physics is that Einstein’s theory of gravity, General Relativity, does not ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

Cavendish-like: A schematic diagram of the proposed experiment on gravitational interaction between two torsion balances. Two torsion pendula are placed with their equilibrium orientations (dashed ...
