Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Monarch Quantum, Inc., a U.S.-based quantum photonics company specializing in integrated photonics systems for quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum ...

With $20 M funding so far, Quantum Gravity Gradiometer Pathfinder Mission is intended to “advance U.S. space sensing”. Variable: a NASA map of Earth’s gravity. Click for info. Infleqtion, a developer ...

Infleqtion, which designs and builds quantum computers, precision sensors, and quantum software, is collaborating with NASA to launch the world's first quantum gravity sensor into low Earth orbit.

ABSTRACT: This work explores the connection between the Coupled-Fields (CF) model and gravitation, proposing a unified interpretation in which spacetime curvature arises from gradients in field ...

Quantum gravity is a research area in theoretical physics that seeks a consistent, predictive framework unifying general relativity with quantum mechanics by quantizing the gravitational field. It ...

Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human brain? If you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our ...

Natural physical networks are continuous, three-dimensional objects, like the small mathematical model displayed here. Researchers have found that physical networks in living systems follow rules ...

In this video, we explore the relationship between string theory and quantum field theory (QFT). QFT is a mathematical framework that describes nearly all particles and forces in the universe but ...

The ball rolls across the floor because it was kicked, just as Earth orbits the sun because it is tugged by gravity. The connection between cause and effect is fundamental to how we understand the ...
