The geometry of space, where physical laws unfold, may also hold answers to some of the deepest questions in fundamental physics. The very structure of spacetime might underlie every interaction in ...

The universe feels three-dimensional — but some of the deepest physics suggests reality may have 11 dimensions hidden from our senses. This idea comes from theories like string theory and M-theory, ...

For the first time, physicists have built a two-dimensional experimental system that allows them to study the physical properties of materials theorized to exist only in four-dimensional space. An ...

We live in a three- dimensional world - or do we? We may need as many as 11 dimensions to explain experimental findings, according… We live in a three- dimensional world - or do we? We may need as ...

Recent scientific discussions suggest that the fourth dimension might be concealed within our everyday perception of reality, challenging conventional views of space and time. This idea intersects ...

It’s been two years since scientists discovered evidence of gravitational waves. Now, they’re figuring out what we can do with them. Recently, they found a huge, early contender: Using them to unveil ...

Sometimes, the hardest job for a theoretical physicist is telling the story. The work in this field can be conducted entirely in the abstract, leaving outsiders (and the odd insider) bewildered, but ...

A refreshingly simple new idea has emerged in the complicated world of high energy physics. It proposes that the early universe was a one-dimensional line. Not an exploding sphere, not a chaotic ball ...
