At long last, a unified theory combining gravity with the other fundamental forces—electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces—is within reach. Bringing gravity into the fold has been the ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.—Renowned French scientist Alain Aspect, who won the 2022 Nobel Prize for his pathfinding research in quantum physics, will give a lecture on Monday (May 13) at Purdue University ...

The force we experience most intimately remains the most mysterious. Physicists understand how vast migrations of particles called photons light up our homes, and how swarms of “gluon” particles hold ...

Researchers have developed a new quantum theory of gravity which describes gravity in a way that's compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding ...
