After a 10-year effort, physicists got a value for “Big G” that does not settle the debate over one of nature’s hardest ...
For over a century, physicists have been trying to answer one of the most profound questions in science: Can gravity be unified with the quantum world? While the main model describes the ...
Gravity, as most people understand it, is the familiar force that pulls a falling apple toward Earth. But for astronomers and ...
Scientists have taken lasers beyond light and into the realm of sound, creating a breakthrough “phonon laser” that ...
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 ...
We all know gravity as the invisible force that keeps us grounded. But what if it's not a force at all? What if it's a function? One physicist believes gravity might actually be one of the strongest ...
By feeding students the mysteries and wonder of modern physics, Don Lincoln hopes to ‘blow their minds.’ ...
Rumours that Earth's gravity suddenly disappeared for a few seconds have circulated widely on the Internet lately. This rumor ...
In quantum physics, objects can exist in multiple states at the same time—a phenomenon known as quantum superposition, where ...
A collection of videos that look at the challenges faced by scientists, engineers and doctors ahead of Felix Baumgartner's ...
In quantum physics, objects can exist in multiple states at the same time—a phenomenon known as quantum superposition, where ...
Einstein's theory of general relativity explains that gravity is caused by a curvature of the directions of space and time. The most familiar manifestation of this is the Earth's gravity, which keeps ...
