From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

Physicists have directly mapped a hidden kind of geometry inside quantum materials that steers electrons in ways strikingly ...

Researchers have discovered a hidden quantum geometry inside materials that subtly steers electrons, echoing how gravity ...

The second paper, "Fermion Chirality from Non-Bipartite Topology," applies this same lattice geometry to the quantum world. It proposes that the "handedness" (chirality) of subatomic particles is not ...

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...

A team of researchers led by the University of Warwick has developed the first unified framework for detecting "spacetime ...
