Supermassive cosmic objects, such as black holes, are very difficult to study directly, but researchers can construct useful analogues in the laboratory using quantum effects. For example, researchers ...

Whether space-time exists should neither be controversial nor even conceptually challenging, given the definitions of “space-time,” “events” and “instants.” The idea that space-time exists is no more ...

A time-to-digital converter (TDC) is like a stopwatch measuring the elapsed interval between two events with picosecond precision, converting this into a digital value for post-processing. Many space ...
