What if the universe remembers? A bold new framework proposes that spacetime acts as a quantum memory. For over a hundred years, physics has rested on two foundational theories. Einstein’s general relativity describes gravity as the curvature of space and time,

In recent years, a group of Hungarian researchers have made headlines with a bold claim. They say they’ve discovered a new particle — dubbed X17 — that requires the existence of a fifth force of nature. The researchers weren’t looking for the new ...

There may be a fifth fundamental force of the universe that we haven’t documented yet — and, according to new research, our best bet of uncovering it may not lie in deep space, but in objects relatively close to home. They point to the wealth of data ...

A new study suggests subatomic particles called muons are breaking the laws of physics. This may mean a mysterious force is affecting muons, which would make our understanding of physics incomplete. It could be the same force that's responsible for dark ...

Sometimes, the simplest explanation is the best one," Professor Gupta said. "Maybe the universe’s biggest secrets are just tricks played by the evolving constants of nature."

Two physicists in the US have come up with a way to use a “bubble” of ultracold atoms to measure extremely small forces. The scheme, which has yet to be tested experimentally, involves monitoring the motion of a bubble of one type of atomic gas that is ...

According to the model, dark matter may have started as particles that were hot, light, massless, and fast. As the universe cooled, these particles became heavy, slow, and dark, becoming an invisible glue that holds things like galaxies together.
