We experience the flow of time because it’s a natural outcome of the basic laws of physics. But we may need to build a whole ...

If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory ...

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of ...

Gravitons are hypothetical subatomic particles, considered key components in a theoretical quantum theory of gravity. Some ...

A new perspective on gravity emerges from the work of Ginestra Bianconi, professor of applied mathematics at Queen Mary ...

Quantum mechanics rules subatomic particles, while general relativity explains gravity’s role in shaping space and time. A complete theory of quantum gravity remains one of the biggest ...

The implications of this research are profound. By linking gravity to quantum information theory, the study provides a potential pathway to a unified theory of quantum gravity. Moreover ...

Famed physicist Stephen Hawking took gravity to its ultimate limits. In doing so, he made a number of significant ...

Physicists have proposed a radical approach that questions decades of belief about how gravity, spacetime, and quantum mechanics fit together.

Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...

Just because a mine has been exhausted of its ore, that doesn't necessarily mean it has no value. A 2023 study suggests that the shafts of such abandoned mines could serve as energy-storing gravity ...
