The energy of a particle corresponds to a wavelength (either a photon wavelength for light or a de Broglie wavelength for matter), and to get down to Planck lengths, you need a particle at the ...

A fast moving Planck-mass dark matter particle (blue) flying next to a quantum particle in a state which is the superposition of two positions (red) induces a phase shift between the two quantum ...

Planck photon rocket drives --- which in theory could hit velocities equal to 99.999 percent the speed of light --- might eventually offer propulsion engineers a way to drastically reduce ...

Some theoretical particle physicists predict all four fundamental forces—gravity, the weak force, electromagnetism and the strong force—finally merge into one force at this energy. Quantum gravity and ...

In 1900, some six years of work had led Max Planck to the correct mathematical form of the frequency spectrum known as Planck’s Radiation Law. ... The Wave–Particle Duality.

If scientists found a fundamental particle with a mass above the Planck scale, they would need to revisit how they think about particle sizes. For the kind of research performed at the LHC, ...

Now, researchers from Max Planck have proposed a new hypothetical particle that might be behind dark matter – the superheavy gravitino – and outlined just how we might find them. SUBSCRIBE LOG IN ...

The highest energy conceivable for an elementary particle is the so-called Planck energy.With this energy, quantum mechanics changes the nature of gravity and gravitational interaction is as strong as ...
