When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...

For more than a century, gravity and quantum physics have stubbornly resisted a common language, one describing the smooth ...

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...

TU Wien researchers have uncovered a quantum twist to the paths particles take through spacetime — one that could finally ...

A new warp-drive study proposes a novel segmented design that brings hyper-fast space travel one step closer to becoming a ...

Physicists have spent a century trying to reconcile the smooth fabric of spacetime in general relativity with the jittery quantum fields that govern particles, and gravity has stubbornly resisted ...

Researchers at TU Wien have integrated quantum physics with general relativity, revealing significant departures from ...

It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...

The new method updates "truncated Wigner approximation" (TWA), a decades-old technique for approximating quantum behavior, into a plug-and-play shortcut for solving complex calculations. According to ...

One of this year’s winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics warned that China is rapidly narrowing the gap with the US in quantum computing. “China is definitely very competitive in this,” John Martinis ...
