"GW250114 is the loudest gravitational wave event we have detected to date; it was like a whisper becoming a shout." ...

Ten years after the first gravitational wave detection, a new suite of instruments has captured distinctive ringing signals ...

The third Quantum Gravity conference took place at Penn State University from 21 to 25 July 2025, bringing together ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. An abstract illustration of quantum particles entangling. New research aims to unite gravity with ...

Textbooks give strange, imprecise explanations of where things happen in quantum mechanics. Consistency with gravity needs a fresh approach.

Superfluid helium reveals a manageable analog to the Schwinger effect. It deepens understanding of vortices and quantum ...

At the center of each classical black hole is a paradox: a singularity, where gravity is infinite and the laws of physics break down. But a new theoretical breakthrough says such cosmic dead ends aren ...

“A theory that coherently describes all fundamental forces of nature is often called the Theory of Everything,” Aalto University postdoctoral researcher Mikko Partanen said. It has been the physicists ...

Recently, a research team from India revealed a novel mechanism for the bending of light around black holes. The study shows that the geometric structure of black holes undergoes quantum corrections, ...

Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.
