Now, artificial intelligence (AI) tools are providing powerful new ways to address long-standing problems in physics. “The ...

For the first time, scientists have measured the 'shape' of an electron in solids, opening the door to advances in quantum ...

New research suggests time could hold the key to resolving mysteries of gravity, quantum mechanics, and other phenomena in ...

In Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity, the concept of “time dilation” illustrates that the flow of time is ...

Physicists have modelled a quantum mechanism that can result in the end of the universe through the mechanism of false vacuum ...

There are few concepts in physics that are mentioned as much as the concept of time. In the original theory of relativity proposed by Einstein, time is not an absolute value. The passage of time ...

We consider a vacuum to be the lowest energy state of the Universe. But it's possible that there's an even lower-energy, more ...

Over the last few years, optical atomic clocks have broken record after record in precision timekeeping. Atoms are cooled to ...

Physicists have outlined a method to test whether time itself can exist in quantum superposition, allowing a single clock to tick both faster and slower simultaneously. Advances in optical atomic ...

Two UC Berkeley faculty, a UCLA physicist and a UC Santa Barbara Nobel laureate were awarded Breakthrough Foundation prizes ...

A new method reveals hidden order in quantum systems, potentially transforming how they are measured and used.

Albert Maguire '82 and Emeritus Professor David Gross won marquee Breakthrough Prizes for outstanding scientific discovery, ...
