Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

The search for quantum gravity is the next big step in physics, as researchers seek to unify the physics of the very small ...

Yet according to physics, information is never destroyed. In principle, a burned book is just as readable as the original—if ...

A tool called AI-Newton can derive scientific laws from raw data, but is some way from developing human-like reasoning.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this story. A new paper uses a simplified model to prove that gravity can be unified between quantum and standard physics. The simpler model still meets the established ...

The flow of time isn’t as consistent as we might think – gravity slows it down, so clocks on the surface of Earth tick slower than those in space. Now researchers have measured time passing at ...

A recent experiment at Fermilab has delivered intriguing results that challenge standard predictions, adding fuel to the ...

A long-standing challenge in physics has been to integrate gravity into the Standard Model, which successfully describes the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces. The difficulty lies in the ...

Physics is this close to understanding the entire universe. And what lives in this gap? Many physicists think it’s the ...
