Quasicrystals are orderly structures that never repeat. Scientists just showed they can exist in space and time.

A new theoretical framework shows how subtle fluctuations in spacetime could be detected using existing interferometers.

For more than a century, physics has treated space and time as the smooth stage on which the universe unfolds, a flexible fabric that bends but never breaks. A new wave of theories is now challenging ...

When speaking of our universe, it's often said that "matter tells spacetime how to curve, and curved spacetime tells matter how to move." This is the essence of Albert Einstein's famous general theory ...

A team of scientists has used X-ray and gamma-ray observations of some of the most distant objects in the Universe to better understand the nature of space and time. Their results set limits on the ...

The field of quantum deformations explores systematic modifications of classical symmetry algebras that underpin our understanding of spacetime. These deformations introduce a quantum parameter – ...

How to build a particle collider the size of the solar system. To observe the quantum nature of gravity and of spacetime itself, we need a particle collider the size of the solar system. Or we could ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...
