The exploration of quantum information challenges objective reality, positing the universe as a hologram is explored through ...

Physicists are still puzzling over the true nature of dark matter and dark energy, because they have inexplicably added 10 times as much mass as normal matter has to the universe. Looking at the ...

In the 18th century, the scientific world was drunk on Newtonian certainty. The universe was a clockwork mechanism, predictable and solid, with clear laws. But Father Roger Joseph Boscovich (Ruđer ...

By Ben BRAKOFor centuries, African spiritual philosophy was corralled at the margins of global thought—reduced by colonial narratives to folklore, or dismissed by rationalist currents as ...

Researchers have developed a technique that makes high-dimensional quantum information encoded in light more practical and reliable. The advancement could pave the way for more secure data ...

Dr. Richard Lieu, a physics professor at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, has published a paper in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity ...

In 2022 three scientists won the Nobel Prize in Physics for proving something astonishing: the universe is not locally real. In other words, particles don’t have fixed properties until they are ...

For many, art and science are still seen as distinct approaches to understanding the world around us. While qualities like intuition or creativity are integral to both practices, the rules they play ...

The universe may have been born out of nothing, with an "anti-universe" twin where time runs in the opposite direction—rather than exploding from an infinitely small and dense point, or "singularity." ...

Recent progress in both analog and digital quantum simulations heralds a future in which quantum computers could simulate — and thereby illuminate — physical phenomena that are far too complex for ...

Nearly 50 years ago, physicists floated a bold idea: our universe might be stuck in a false vacuum. This state feels stable, but deep down, it's not. Over enormous timescales, it could suddenly tip ...
