Waterloo scientists have developed a new way to understand how the universe began, and it could change what we know about the Big Bang and the earliest moments of cosmic history. Their work suggests ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth space-time with the jittery world of quantum mechanics. A new wave of ...

Quantum theory and general relativity have long described the universe with incompatible languages, one speaking in probabilities and the other in smooth curves of spacetime. A new line of work argues ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Progress in the foundations of physics is moving slowly. And yet it moves. Today I look at the five biggest problems in physics, what their status is, and how long it will ...

A group of physicists just built a tiny model of a wormhole on a quantum computer and sent a qubit — a quantum unit of information — through it. It’s a tiny step, but it could be the first step toward ...

The weak gravitational pull on a particle just half the mass of a grain of sand has been measured for the first time. This most precise measurement of its kind is a breakthrough towards the quantum ...

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, SWITZERLAND, March 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — In recent decades, physics has entered a period of rapid expansion in empirical knowledge ...

A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution. GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, SWITZERLAND ...
