There’s a lot of discussion about “time” in the world of quantum physics. At the micro level, where waves and particles can behave the same, time tends to be much more malleable than it is in our ...

A new physics paper proposes modifications to Einstein’s theory of relativity that could solve one of the biggest issues ...

New research suggests a physics theory can improve basketball teams by finding their best spots on the court to shoot. It also can improve how teams prepare for upcoming matchups. AP March is bound to ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. “Our study completes the work of Albert Einstein in his attempt to relate gravity and electromagnetism forces in the same ...

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the ...

The results are just what theory predicts, but when the theory clashes as strongly with everyday experience as this, ...

Over the short span of just 300 years, since the invention of modern physics, we have gained a deeper understanding of how our universe works on both small and large scales. Yet, physics is still very ...

Columnist Natalie Wolchover examines the latest developments in the “forever war” over whether string theory can describe the ...

Imagine trying to prove that 1+1=2, but when you do the calculations, it turns out that the result is off by 0.1%. That scenario is similar to the riddle that’s facing physicists worldwide as they try ...

For decades, physicists have accepted that the universe has two sizes: small and large. So-called classical equations govern big objects like baseballs and galaxies, while quantum mechanics describes ...
