It may sound like the outlandish plot of a poorly conceived science-fiction flick. But some scientists now claim that humanity, the Earth, and everything else in the universe are really part of a ...

The story opens with a scene both familiar and deceptively simple: physicists once again interrogating the fabric of reality, ...

We, as humans, have a variety of senses that we use to experience the world around us. But perception can be a tricky thing. It can be fooled by, say, two dimensions of light working together to ...

Associate professor of physics Matthew Headrick researches one of the most cutting-edge ideas in theoretical physics. It proposes that the universe is a three-dimensional image projected off a ...

LOGAN, UTAH, USA -- Exactly 100 years ago, famed Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger (yes, the cat guy) postulated his eponymous equation that explains how particles in quantum physics behave. A key ...

Don't freak out, but there's a good chance that the entire universe is actually a holographic projection. The theory isn't new -- we've been talking about it since the 90's -- but a new study from ...

A new study by researchers from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS) and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics (PI) discovers a unifying thread in two approaches to ...

(Nanowerk News) We can all picture that incredible image of a black hole that travelled around the world about a year ago. Yet, according to new research by SISSA, ICTP and INFN, black holes could be ...
