Quantum networking is being rapidly developed world-wide. It is a key quantum technology that will enable a global quantum ...

A team of scientists led by expert Raúl Jiménez, ICREA researcher at the University of Barcelona's Institute of Cosmos ...

A new quantum recipe for black holes could be the first step toward a theory of "quantum gravity", the "holy grail" of ...

What exactly is gravity, and how does it work? From Newton’s early groundbreaking discoveries to Einstein’s revolutionary ...

Researchers are using machine learning, symbolic regression, and high-performance computing to explore and classify string ...

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the ...

Everything in the universe has gravity – and feels it too. Yet this most common of all fundamental forces is also the one that presents the biggest challenges to physicists. Albert Einstein’s theory ...

Some physicists think our reality is a kind of cosmic hologram, with space, time, and gravity as manifestations of a ...

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 ...

A new study introduces a radical change in the understanding of the first moments after the Big Bang, without relying on the ...

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.

What if gravity isn’t weirdly quantum at all, but rather … just a bit messy? The holy grail of theoretical physics is to find the long-sought theory of quantum gravity. But what if this theory ...
