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 ...

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 ...

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever.. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

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 ...

In fact, they have been proposing experiments that can test the quantumness of gravity. On October 29, 2024, one such proposal appeared in the journal Physical Review Letters .

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 ...
