A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.
Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to Albert Einstein’s instincts about reality. By stripping classic thought ...

Modern physics has turned the old clockwork picture of the universe into something far stranger, filled with quantum probabilities, emergent patterns and deep puzzles about what counts as a “cause.” ...
Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

Argonne’s solenoid facility provides powerful magnetic fields for testing. A limiting factor in modern physics experiments is the precision at which scientists can measure important values, such as ...
Shaped by a different biology or culture, other intelligent civilisations – if they’re out there – might understand the ...
For the first time, physicists have used lasers to deep-freeze antimatter. In a new experiment, an ultraviolet laser quelled the thermal jitters of antihydrogen atoms, chilling the antiatoms to just ...
