Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

Quantum gravity and field theory represent a frontier where the principles of quantum mechanics are reconciled with Einstein’s description of gravity. Researchers are seeking a consistent framework ...

A radical new theory begins with a central claim: consciousness is the fundamental field of reality; time, space, and matter ...

Physicists have chased a unified description of nature for more than a century, yet quantum theory and gravity have ...

A new theory for the origins of dark matter suggests that fast-moving, neutrino-like dark particles could have decoupled from ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum ...

For more than a century, physicists have been trying to reconcile the smooth geometry of gravity with the jittery ...

The force we experience most intimately remains the most mysterious. Physicists understand how vast migrations of particles called photons light up our homes, and how swarms of “gluon” particles hold ...

Researchers at the University of Twente and Utrecht University demonstrated for the first time that quantum states in the ...

The speed of light has been one of science’s most trusted markers of stability. For more than a century, the idea that light ...
