The strength of a gravitational wave as a function of distance from the origin (horizontal axis) and a specific measure of time (vertical axis). The two panels represent results from two different ...

We explore Objective Collapse Theories in a down to earth objective way. Objective Collapse Theories offer a explanation of quantum mechanics that is at once brand new and based in classical mechanics ...

“This retroactive idea. It has to be that,” says Nobel Prize-winning mathematical physicist Sir Roger Penrose, reflecting on a problem about the building blocks of reality that has dogged physics for ...

Speculative new research outlines a method for detecting extraterrestrial civilizations: by catching the gravitational waves produced by the collapse, or failure, of their warp drives. Sounds wild, ...
