New study proposes using atomic clocks to probe the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity in spacetime.

For decades, quantum physics and general relativity have stood as two powerful but separate theories. Quantum physics explains the behavior of tiny particles like atoms and photons. General relativity ...

Quantum cosmology and loop quantum gravity constitute two intertwined pillars in the quest for a quantum theory of gravity. Quantum cosmology applies the principles of quantum mechanics to the entire ...

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the ...

Attend our special community celebration that traces the remarkable journey of quantum physics and its transformative ...

RIKEN physicists have put quantum computing and deep learning through their paces and found that they are powerful tools for gleaning insights into new theories of quantum gravity 1. They could thus ...

The gravitational two-body problem has been fundamental to physics since Newton's time. With the advent of gravitational wave astronomy and the anticipated third generation of gravitational wave ...

The theory of quantum mechanics has transformed daily life since being proposed a century ago, yet how it works remains a mystery—and physicists are deeply divided about what is actually going on, a ...

Challenging conventional wisdom, modern science explores concepts that redefine life and death, suggesting death might be a mental illusion. Biocentrism posits that consciousness shapes the universe, ...
