“Time Expansion” – Our Perception of Time Has Slowed
In the early stages of the epidemic, the majority of those who were confined to their homes said that they felt that time moved more…
Changing What Time You Exercise Can Help You Lose More Weight
For the first time, scientists demonstrate that the best time of day to exercise varies on one’s sex and training goals. When should I fit…
MIT Physicists Harness Quantum “Time Reversal” for Detecting Gravitational Waves and Dark Matter
A new technique to measure vibrating atoms could improve the precision of atomic clocks and of quantum sensors for detecting dark matter or gravitational waves….
Time Might Not Exist, According to Physicists
Does time exist? The answer to this question may seem obvious: of course it does! Just look at a calendar or a clock. But developments…
Time-Reversal Phenomenon: In the Quantum Realm, Not Even Time Flows As You Might Expect
New study shows the boundary between time moving forward and backward may blur in quantum mechanics. A team of physicists at the Universities of Bristol,…
Why Time Sometimes Flies or Drags: How the Brain Creates the Experience of Time
Time-sensitive neurons fatigue and skew our perception of time. On some days, time flies by, while on others it seems to drag on. A new…
Neuroscientists Make Major Breakthrough in 200-Year-Old Puzzle – New Psychophysical Law
For centuries, the mental world of the mind and the physical world were treated as utterly distinct. While the movement of inanimate objects could be…
Physicists Reverse Time Using Quantum Computer
Researchers from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology teamed up with colleagues from the U.S. and Switzerland and returned the state of a quantum…
Perceptive Time Slows Down for Athletes Before They Act
Scientists at the University College London have discovered that an individual’s perception of time does seem to slow when they prepare to make a physical…
Proposed Thorium Neutron-Based Clock Would be Accurate for Billions of Years
Scientists are proposing the building of a hyper-accurate nuclear clock that would lose only one-tenth of a second over 14 billion years, the current age…
Time Cloak Creates Hole in Time, Makes Events Disappear
The General Theory of Relativity by Albert Einstein implies that gravity can cause time to slow down. Scientists have now shown that there is a…
