A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.
Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...
A growing body of theoretical and experimental work in physics is converging on a striking possibility: time, the dimension humans experience as a constant forward flow, may not be a fundamental ...
A cluster of recent theoretical papers has laid out mathematical frameworks for propelling spacecraft at speeds ranging from ...
In 1980, Stephen Hawking gave his first lecture as Lucasian Professor at the University of Cambridge. The lecture was called "Is the end in sight for theoretical physics?" Forty-five years later, ...
