Physicists have proposed a new model of space-time that may provide the 'first observational evidence supporting string ...

During the latter part of the 20th century, string theory was put forward as a unifying theory of physics foundations. String ...

For years, string theory has been the darling of theoretical physics—graceful, bold, and with just enough poetry to keep ...

Earlier studies provided a rough picture of black holes, like a low-resolution image with 1,000 pixels. In contrast, ...

String theory’s equations require that the universe has extra dimensions beyond the three of everyday experience—left/right, back/forth and up/down. Taking the math to heart, researchers ...

Supermazes” are theoretical structures that provide a fresh blueprint for understanding the microscopic complexity of black ...

A team of physicists has discovered a new approach that redefines the conception of black holes by mapping out their detailed structure, as shown in a ...
