Nature speaks to theoretical physicists to explore the real theories that inspired the hit series. Warning: contains spoilers ...

The universe is a strange, beautiful place—rich with possibilities and governed by the odd rules of quantum mechanics. One of the most mind-bending ideas from this realm is the many-worlds ...

Recent discoveries have reignited excitement and curiosity in the scientific community, suggesting the possible existence of parallel universes. Scientists are delving into evidence and theories ...

While parallel universes are a staple of science fiction, there are some real scientific theories to support them. But if parallel universes do exist, could we ever travel to them? It certainly wouldn ...

(NewsNation) — Theoretical physicist Dr. Michio Kaku supports the concept of parallel universes, but he says people shouldn’t get their hopes up about meeting their doppelganger in another dimension, ...

Stranger Things draws inspiration from a real quantum physics idea known as the many-worlds interpretation, which suggests multiple universes may exist at once. Physicists remain divided, as the ...

Physics has a problem—their key models of quantum theory and the theory of relativity do not fit together. Now, Dr. Wolfgang Wieland from Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

You might say it all started with a spot of hay fever. In June 1925, a young physicist named Werner Heisenberg retreated to the barren island of Helgoland in the North Sea, seeking respite from his ...
