Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Einstein’s claim that the speed of light is constant has survived more than a century of scrutiny—but scientists are still ...

Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

The rapid acceleration of the universe’s expansion continues to challenge our understanding of fundamental physics. Why the ...

Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space rockets, mathematical puzzles, dinosaur bones, black holes, supernovas, and sometimes, the drama of philosophical ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

Is there a time of day or night at which nature's heaviest elementary particle stops obeying Einstein's rules? The answer to that question, as bizarre as it seems, could tell scientists something very ...

For over 100 years, two theories have shaped our understanding of the universe: quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity. One explains the tiny world of particles; the other describes ...

Time travel is still very much science fiction, at least to us laymens.. But in the world of physics that’s not the case.

Time travel has shifted from pure fantasy to a serious, if highly constrained, topic in modern physics. The equations that ...

A unified Theory Of Everything is the holy grail of physics, but gravity refuses to play ball. A newly proposed theory attempts to unify Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics – and ...
