A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

A physicist proposes that consciousness is the fundamental basis of reality, with matter and spacetime emerging from it.

Shaped by a different biology or culture, other intelligent civilisations – if they’re out there – might understand the ...

CERN's new supercollider will be 8 times more powerful than the LHC, the largest and most powerful in the world. Physicists could use it to solve mysteries about the nature of our universe. Based on ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other. Quantum theory governs particles and fields, while Einstein’s gravity describes ...

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 ...

Ashoke Sen might be one of the quietest geniuses in physics. Born in Kolkata in 1956, he grew up fascinated by abstract mathematics and theoretical puzzles. While most kids were playing outside, Sen ...
