For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

C hina has decided to take hypergravity to a whole new level – testing both materials and fundamental physics in a regime we ...

There is a glaring gap in our knowledge of the physical world: none of our well-established theories describe gravity’s quantum nature. Yet physicists expect that this quantum nature is essential for ...

You can take a scale model to Zhejiang University, where the CHIEF1900 gravitational centrifuge can batter it with 300 times ...

It was already a mind-bending shift, last century, to go from Isaac Newton’s absolute space and universal time to Albert Einstein’s four-dimensional space-time, which is dynamic, flexible, sensitive ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

One way to longer life may be higher gravity—at least for rats. That is the “very tentative suggestion” of experiments performed by NASA Physiologist Jiro Oyama, who has been raising mice and rats ...

China has broken its own record in hypergravity research after completing construction of its multi-tonne centrifuge that can ...

If true (and it’s a pretty big “if”), Vopson’s new gravitational study would shake the foundations of the currently accepted view of the universe. In his paper, Vopson writes that his new work could ...
