Gravity, as most people understand it, is the familiar force that pulls a falling apple toward Earth. But for astronomers and ...

Gravity has become an unlikely viral villain, blamed for an imagined global blackout in which the planet briefly lets go of everything that is not nailed down. At the same time, some of the most ...

After a 10-year effort, physicists got a value for “Big G” that does not settle the debate over one of nature’s hardest ...

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 ...

In quantum physics, objects can exist in multiple states at the same time—a phenomenon known as quantum superposition, where ...

Here’s what you’ll learn in this story. A new paper uses a simplified model to prove that gravity can be unified between quantum and standard physics. The simpler model still meets the established ...

In a bold step toward solving one of science’s most puzzling problems, researchers have proposed a new way to bring gravity into the same mathematical language as the other forces of nature. While the ...

The result from CERN confirms expectations, but it's the first time gravity’s effect on the stuff has actually been tested. Reading time 3 minutes In the 95 years we’ve known about antimatter, ...

We all know gravity as the invisible force that keeps us grounded. But what if it's not a force at all? What if it's a function? One physicist believes gravity might actually be one of the strongest ...
