In the end, the Universe becomes a place where gravity and quantum physics slowly turn all mass into faint streams of particles.

Quantum mechanics and general relativity are the two pinnacles of 20th-century physics. In their respective fields, ...

Scientists are using anesthesia to probe the quantum roots of consciousness—and the research offers tantalizing evidence.

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 ...

SQUIRE aims to detect exotic spin-dependent interactions using quantum sensors deployed in space, where speed and ...

General anesthesia is supposed to switch us off, yet patients often report emerging from the void with the eerie sense that ...

A RECENT GROUNDBREAKING EXPERIMENT in which anesthesia was administered to rats has convinced scientists that tiny structures in the rodents’ brains are responsible for the experience of consciousness ...

For close to a century, scientists have been trying to marry Albert Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity and quantum ...

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the bending of space and time. Quantum mechanics governs the world of particles ...

Two clashing ideas about disorder inside black holes now point to the same strange conclusions, and it could reshape the ...

A radical new theory begins with a central claim: consciousness is the fundamental field of reality; time, space, and matter ...
