This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

If you want to understand gravity, it makes sense to study black holes. Nowhere else can you find so much gravity so conveniently compacted into such a relatively small space. In a way, in fact, black ...

This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.

Large masses – such as a galaxy – curve space-time. Objects move along a geodesic. If we take into account that space-time itself has quantum properties, deviations arise (dashed line vs. solid line).

As I was looking through all that is new and exciting in the world of physics this morning, I came across this interesting paper titled “Persistence of black holes through a cosmological bounce”, ...

Shini sits down to talk about how Newtonian Gravity is more than a little important. In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini sits down to talk about the realities of the apple story and how ...

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 ...

Even teeny objects obey the law of gravity. A gold ball just 2 millimeters wide, with a mass of about 90 milligrams, is now the smallest object to have its gravitational pull measured. Observations of ...
