After a 10-year effort, physicists got a value for “Big G” that does not settle the debate over one of nature’s hardest ...

Only about 5% of the universe is composed of normal matter that we can directly observe, while the remaining 95% is widely ...

For over a century, physicists have been trying to answer one of the most profound questions in science: Can gravity be unified with the quantum world? While the main model describes the ...

Gravity, as most people understand it, is the familiar force that pulls a falling apple toward Earth. But for astronomers and ...

Gravity is supposed to be the most familiar force in nature, yet at the deepest level it remains the least understood. A bold new line of research now argues that gravity is not fundamental at all, ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity explains that gravity is caused by a curvature of the directions of space and time. The most familiar manifestation of this is the Earth's gravity, which keeps ...

A Montana State University astrophysicist and strong gravity expert has been awarded the National Science Foundation’s most ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

By feeding students the mysteries and wonder of modern physics, Don Lincoln hopes to ‘blow their minds.’ ...

We all know gravity as the invisible force that keeps us grounded. But what if it's not a force at all? What if it's a function? One physicist believes gravity might actually be one of the strongest ...

Grab a mixing bowl from your kitchen, throw in a handful of aluminum balls, apply some high voltage, and watch an elegant dance unfold where particles re-arrange themselves into a distinct “crystal” ...
