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.

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the ...

"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time ...

Gravity cannot be simply broken down into quanta, but since it arises from the curvature of spacetime according to the theory of relativity, a detour could be possible.

Besides quantum theory, general relativity is one of two pillars of modern physics – our working theory of gravity and of the very large, of planets, galaxies and the universe as a whole.

Optical lattice clocks, the pinnacle of timekeeping, are key to exploring the relationship between quantum mechanics and ...

THERE were many difficulties to encounter in entering the room just now. To begin with, we had to bear the crushing load of the atmosphere, amounting to 14 lb. on every square inch. At each step ...

Einstein’s general relativity is an exceptional theory of gravity that has been proven correct time and time again. Quantum mechanics takes care of the three other fundamental forces ...

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