A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.

A new proposal makes the case that paraparticles — a new category of quantum particle — could be created in exotic materials. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

What if time is not as fixed as we thought? Imagine that instead of flowing in one direction—from past to future—time could flow forward or backwards due to processes taking place at the quantum level ...
