If gravity arises from entropy, scientists could unite Einstein's general relativity with the quantum realm while shedding light on dark matter and dark energy.

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...

For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with those of general relativity. While quantum mechanics governs the behavior of particles at the smallest ...

Einstein’s general theory of relativity can be summed up in just 12 words: “Space-time tells matter how to move; matter tells space-time how to curve”. But this short description from the ...

The challenge of quantum gravity For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with those of general relativity. While quantum mechanics governs the ...

In 1994, Miguel Alcubierre was able to construct a valid solution to the equations of general relativity that enable a warp drive. But now we need to tackle the rest of relativity: How do we ...

For decades, physicists have struggled to reconcile the principles of quantum mechanics with those of general relativity. While quantum mechanics governs the behaviour of particles at the smallest ...

Simultaneously, according to Einstein's laws of general relativity, time moves slower in stronger gravitational fields. This effect, known as gravitational redshift, leads to a tiny shift of atoms ...

A new recipe for gravity could help solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. It suggests that the concept of "quantum ...
