Physicists successfully measure gravity in the quantum world, detecting weak gravitational pull on a tiny particle with a new technique that uses levitating magnets, putting…
Nuclear physicists at Jefferson Lab have mapped the distribution of the strong force within the proton, employing a framework that links to gravity, opening a…
Why does gravity pull us down and not up? Gravity is the reason things with mass or energy are attracted to each other. It is…
Scientists are developing an experiment to test whether gravity is quantum In quantum mechanics, which describes the behavior of atoms and molecules –objects behave differently…
Study by the Universities of Bonn and St. Andrews proposes a new possible explanation for the Hubble tension. The universe is expanding. How fast it…
A radical theory that consistently unifies gravity and quantum mechanics while preserving Einstein’s classical concept of spacetime is announced today in two papers published simultaneously…
Cosmologists propose a giant void in space as a solution to the “Hubble tension,” challenging conventional models and suggesting a revision of Einstein’s gravity theory….
Outer reaches of solar system could harbor another planet—or evidence modifying laws of gravity. A pair of theoretical physicists are reporting that the same observations…
Mysterious and inescapable, black holes rank among the most extraordinary entities in the universe. Scientists at HITS, Germany, have predicted that the ‘chirp’ noise generated…
Landmark CERN experiment may help explain why antimatter seemingly lost out in the early universe. If you dropped antimatter, would it fall down or up?…
Experiment at CERN eliminates the possibility that antimatter is repulsed by gravity. CERN’s ALPHA collaboration has experimentally confirmed that antihydrogen is pulled down by gravity,…
A recent study from SISSA proposes a new model of non-local interaction between the dark matter of a galaxy and gravity. Isaac Newton described his…
A study on the orbital motions of wide binaries has uncovered evidence that standard gravity breaks down at low accelerations. This discovery aligns with a…
Scientists are investigating the use of Earth’s seismic motions to test alternative models of gravity beyond Einstein’s general theory of relativity. By analyzing seismic waves…
Research by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope collaboration has culminated in a significant breakthrough in understanding the evolution of the universe. For millennia, humans have been…
A study conducted at UCLA successfully overcomes the influence of Earth’s gravity, replicating conditions found on other planets and stars. Solar flares and various forms…
Engineers from Caltech have discovered that Leonardo da Vinci’s understanding of gravity—though not wholly accurate—was centuries ahead of his time. In an article published in…
