Violent black hole collisions may create black hole 'morsels' no larger than an asteroid — and these bizarre objects could pave the way to unlocking new physics, a study claims.

Generations of researchers have tried to create a quantum theory of gravity, and their work has produced sophisticated ...

In 1935, in a Europe on the brink of war, Erwin Schrodinger trapped an imaginary cat inside a quantum puzzle -- and in doing so, forced the world to question what “real” even means. Here’s more about ...

Here are two additions to George F. Will’s misused words list: “incredible” and “takeaways.” The former, as in, “our ...

The paradox of quantum measurement and collapse is central to quantum mechanics, with significant implications for technology ...

Bold new theories on "mirror worlds" and how dark matter may have formed - from black hole relics to quantum horizons.

Now there are two more options available for theoretical physicists mulling over the mystery of what dark matter is, and with ...

A team of theoretical researchers including Kavli IPMU's Hirosi Ooguri, and led by Kyushu University's Yuya Kusuki, have used ...

Two recent studies speculate a natural emergence of the mysterious substance, offering ‘self-contained and calculable ...

In true sci-fi fashion, L’Engle draws on Einstein’s theory of relativity and Planck’s quantum theory to make this predicament feel possible.

Scientists tackle one of the most challenging problems in physics--the interplay between quantum theory and gravity—from a different angle.
