Artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly artificial neural networks, have proved to be highly promising tools for ...

Two recent studies published in Nature and Science Advances explored quantum approaches that could improve the precision of ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully coupled a continuous time crystal-a quantum system that oscillates ...

If you were able to visualize the passage of time, it may appear as looping ribbons of color, these fragments ribboning and ...

Whether space-time exists should neither be controversial nor even conceptually challenging, given the definitions of “space-time,” “events” and “instants.” The idea that space-time exists is no more ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

The theoretical physicist and best-selling author finds inspiration in politics and philosophy for rethinking space and time.

One of the most awkward parts of writing a book is that, eventually, authors have to ask people for “blurbs” – the endorsements that you see on the cover of a book, encouraging you to buy it. I am now ...

"These single atoms are like the smallest slits you could possibly build." For over 100 years, quantum physics has taught us that light is both a wave and a particle. Now, researchers at the ...

How do we know the speed of light – and why does it have a speed limit at all? Leah Crane explores the history of one of the ...

How to build a particle collider the size of the solar system. To observe the quantum nature of gravity and of spacetime itself, we need a particle collider the size of the solar system. Or we could ...

When the International Space Station plunges to its fiery doom in 2030 its loss to science will be incalculable, even if it ...
