Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...

For more than a century, physics has treated space and time as the smooth stage on which the universe unfolds, a flexible ...

“Using newer mathematical tools, my colleague and I have demonstrated a new theory that may accurately describe the universe.

Oftentimes, we think of space as an endless, mostly empty vacuum, a silent backdrop where planets, stars, and galaxies play out their dance. We also think of time as something separate, a steady ...

Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

Observing time distortions could show whether Einstein's theory of general relativity accounts for the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

Two blind spots torture physicists: the birth of the universe and the center of a black hole. The former may feel like a moment in time and the latter a point in space, but in both cases the normally ...

One of the most awkward parts of writing a book is that, eventually, authors have to ask people for “blurbs” – the endorsements that you see on the cover of a book, encouraging you to buy it. I am now ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
