MIT researchers have developed a mathematical formulation using classical physics principles to exactly reproduce results from quantum mechanics. By extending the Hamilton-Jacobi equation with density ...

University of Chicago physicist Clay Córdova has been named a recipient of the 2026 New Horizons in Physics Prize for his ...

At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the ...

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 ...

Once a baffling theory, quantum mechanics has evolved into a driving force behind modern technology and frontier research.

“A theory that coherently describes all fundamental forces of nature is often called the Theory of Everything,” Aalto University postdoctoral researcher Mikko Partanen said. It has been the physicists ...

Einstein and the Quantum Revolutions Alain Aspect Univ. Chicago Press (2024) French physicist Alain Aspect is a pioneer in ‘quantum entanglement’ — connections between the quantum properties of ...

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 have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...
