THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: As India’s Shubhanshu Shukla, along with three other astronauts, headed to the International Space ...

A new probe in development known as GIRO represents a low-cost step toward unlocking the secrets of exoplanets, all through ...

Gravitational assists are an emblematic example of why space travel is hard —it is exactly rocket science, after all. Gravity ...

This is why the recent small-scale measurement of gravity is so important. The experiment conducted jointly between the Netherlands and the UK is a “tabletop” experiment. It didn’t require massive ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

If built, the experiment might bring us closer to understanding whether the theory of gravity can be reconciled with quantum-mechanical descriptions of the other fundamental forces – a long ...

In this work, a research group from the U.K., Netherlands, and Italy designed an experiment so sensitive that it can measure a gravitational force equal to one-quintillionth of a Newton (on the ...

Young’s experiment was purely classical, but variations on this setup became important for quantum physics. In 1923 physicist Louis de Broglie proposed that quantum objects may behave not like ...
