There are many types of spacetime within physics, the same way there are infinite dimensions in math. Some spacetimes are ...
A new theoretical framework shows how subtle fluctuations in spacetime could be detected using existing interferometers.
A new computational simulation of the early universe has revealed a fundamental, unbreakable geometric limit to the fabric of spacetime, dubbed the "Metric Wall." Discovered by independent physics ...
Quasicrystals are orderly structures that never repeat. Scientists just showed they can exist in space and time.
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 researchers led by the University of Warwick has developed the first unified framework for detecting "spacetime fluctuations"—tiny, random distortions in the fabric of spacetime that appear ...
A growing body of theoretical and experimental work in physics is converging on a striking possibility: time, the dimension humans experience as a constant forward flow, may not be a fundamental ...
It feels so obvious that time moves forward that questioning it can seem almost pointless.
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 ...
