Physicists claim they may have found a long-awaited explanation for dark energy, the mysterious force that's driving the accelerated expansion of the universe, a new preprint study hints. Their ...

The image depicts an experiment in which heavy particles(illustrated as the moon), cause an interference pattern (a quantum effect), while also bendingspacetime. The ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other. Quantum theory governs particles and fields, while Einstein’s gravity describes ...

Spacetime itself would also need to be “quantized,” or broken down into constituent parts. This is what the notorious string theory attempts to do, as does loop quantum gravity, currently considered a ...

Gauge theory and string theory represent two foundational pillars in contemporary theoretical physics, offering profound insights into the nature of fundamental interactions and the structure of the ...

Published January 7 in the journal Nature, one paper tackled the age-old problem of nature’s construction with a bit of a twist: it suggests that living networks, like our brain, may use some of the ...
