A radical new theory begins with a central claim: consciousness is the fundamental field of reality; time, space, and matter ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

Most of the matter in the universe may be made out of particles that possess an unusual, donut-shaped electromagnetic field called an anapole. This proposal, which endows dark matter particles with a ...

Fragments of energy may be the fundamental building blocks of the universe. The theory combines the ideas of particles and waves into a concentration of energy that flows throughout space and time.

A fringe new theory suggests that time is the fundamental structure of the physical universe, and space is merely a byproduct. According to Gunther Kletetschka, a geologist — not a physicist, you’ll ...

It has been a century since Einstein presented his theory of general relativity but it is still helping us unveil some of the deepest mysteries of the universe. Now the LISA pathfinder mission will ...

Most of today’s leading theoretical physicists have a shared perspective about what the next revolution in physics will look like. They think reconciling Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity ...

Quantum theory fails to explain how the reality we experience emerges from the world of particles. A new take on quantum ...

"If the model holds true, it could mark a new chapter in the way we think about the birth of the universe." A radical new theory regarding the origin of the universe suggests that gravitational waves, ...

"It may take decades before we find out what really happens in black holes." Reports of the singularity's demise may have been premature. Earlier this year, new research suggested a potential solution ...
