Everything around us, from atoms and molecules to planets and galaxies, is governed by two extraordinarily successful ...

The question of how gravity interacts with the quantum world has long perplexed physicists, but a non-quantum theory of space ...

Hawking radiation is a form of radiation emitted by black holes, as theoretically predicted by Stephen Hawking. It suggests ...

A researcher at Kyushu University and his collaborators have shown that continuous parameters in quantum gravity may not be ...

Time has always seemed like the one thing physics could count on. Matter changes, stars die, particles flicker in and out, ...

The proposed BMV experiment could test whether gravity is quantum, a breakthrough that may lead to quantum computers and antigravity machines.

Researchers have designed a quantum version of a pendulum clock. It could shed light on timekeeping in the quantum realm ...

Laser light is injected into an optical cavity to continuously measure the position of a movable mirror. The output light is read out by homodyne detection, and the measurement data are analyzed using ...

There is no question that quantum theory is correct. It’s been proven over and over, both in the lab and through practical achievement. But the question remains: is it always correct? Quantum ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...
