A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

Theoretical physicists have spent decades wrestling with a disorienting possibility: that the flow of time is not woven into the basic laws of physics but instead emerges from gravity’s effect on heat ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...

A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. In 1963, Roy Kerr, a New Zealand-based mathematician proposed a set of equations that explain the properties of rotating black ...

In December 2024, astronomers watched a star around 25 times the mass of our sun die in a blaze of glory. Located one billion light-years from Earth, SN 2024afav was a prime example of a superluminous ...

A cluster of recent theoretical papers has laid out mathematical frameworks for propelling spacecraft at speeds ranging from a significant fraction of the speed of light to, in the most ambitious ...

Quote of the day by Newton: 1915 changed physics forever. In that year, Albert Einstein published the general theory of relativity and reshaped our understanding of gravity and spacetime. For 228 ...
