Scientists are a step closer to unraveling the mysterious forces of the universe after working out how to measure gravity on a microscopic level. Experts have never fully understood how the force that ...

Here’s what you’ll learn in this story. A new paper uses a simplified model to prove that gravity can be unified between quantum and standard physics. The simpler model still meets the established ...

At Aalto University in Finland, two physicists believe they may have cracked a puzzle that has defied generations of scientists: how to reconcile the physics of the very big with the physics of the ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well ...

The idea of emergent gravity is still new and requires a lot of assumptions in its calculations to make it work. But if experimental evidence ever proves it real, we would need to totally rewrite the ...

Gravity can turn itself into light, but only if space-time behaves in just the right way, a research team has found. Under normal circumstances, you cannot get something from nothing. Specifically, ...

Sam Baron receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever ...

It was already a mind-bending shift, last century, to go from Isaac Newton’s absolute space and universal time to Albert Einstein’s four-dimensional space-time, which is dynamic, flexible, sensitive ...

How the world of the smallest particles is structured, what is known about fundamental forces, and what particles have to do ...

Thanks to not-so-recent advances in technology, we can shoot just about anything into space, or at the very least into Earth's orbit. At first, we launched spy satellites during the Cold War, but once ...
