Scientists say fragments of energy may be the fundamental building blocks of the universe—not particles and waves.
Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...
Based on Einstein's theory, they demonstrated that if a massive object rotates rapidly, it drags space-time along with it.
Oftentimes, we think of space as an endless, mostly empty vacuum, a silent backdrop where planets, stars, and galaxies play out their dance. We also think of time as something separate, a steady ...
A quantum property dubbed "magic" could be the key to explaining how space and time emerged, a new mathematical analysis by three RIKEN physicists suggests. The research is published in the journal ...
A violent stellar disruption recorded in 2024 has given astronomers their most comprehensive evidence yet of a black hole ...
