Quantum theory has long treated time as a silent backdrop, a parameter that never jitters even as particles flicker in and ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

Using a superconducting quantum computer, physicists created a large and complex version of an odd quantum material that has ...

A new unified theory connects two fundamental domains of modern quantum physics: It joins two opposite views of how a single ...

Kaia Ra, author, oracle and spiritual teacher, has become an influential voice in conversations linking spirituality with ...

Nearly 50 years ago, physicists floated a bold idea: our universe might be stuck in a false vacuum. This state feels stable, but deep down, it's not. Over enormous timescales, it could suddenly tip ...

"Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model" is Netflix's forthcoming, three-part docuseries that dissects the scandals ...

Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string theory,' a new preprint suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

A hunk of material bustles with electrons, one tickling another as they bop around. Quantifying how one particle jostles others in that scrum is so complicated that, beginning in the 1990s, physicists ...

Quantum computing is the bleeding edge of computer science and stands to solve AI's energy consumption problem. IonQ is an ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover checks in with particle physicists more than a decade after the field entered a profound crisis.
