Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, perfectly described on cosmic scales yet refusing to mesh with the quantum rules that govern everything else. A growing camp ...

A new study suggests that gravity could quantum-entangle particles even if it remained classical.

When I was five years old, my family moved into a 1930s semi-detached house with a long strip of garden. At the end of the garden was a miniature orchard of eight apple trees the previous owners had ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

Two clashing ideas about disorder inside black holes now point to the same strange conclusions, and it could reshape the ...

So far, the most accurate model describing gravity is still Einstein’s theory of general relativity. It states that gravity as we feel and observe it is a kind of side effect of the fabric of ...

Physicists hope that understanding the churning region near singularities might help them reconcile gravity and quantum mechanics. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a ...
