We largely think of the world in four dimensions — time and the three spatial dimensions. But a fifth dimension might actually solve this longstanding mystery.

Scientists announced that they have discovered the existence of a particle of nature. There is a wealth of speculations springing from this new finding – could it be, for instance, that this new ...

If you’re superstitious, a black cat in your path is bad luck, even if you keep your distance. Likewise, in quantum physics, particles can feel the influence of magnetic fields that they never come ...

Physics is this close to understanding the entire universe. And what lives in this gap? Many physicists think it’s the elusive graviton—the quantum particle of gravity—whose discovery will finally ...
