Diagrammatic representation of the entropic quantum gravity action. The action for gravity is given by the quantum relative entropy between the metric of the manifold and the metric induced by the ...

Researchers say a new theory tackling the Big Bang could reshape how physicists think about the earliest moments of cosmic history.

Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! Spacecrafts don’t just rely on rockets—they use planets to pick up speed! It’s called a gravity assist, and it’s one of the ...

For decades, astronomers have been puzzled by strange “zebra stripe” patterns in radio waves from the Crab Pulsar — bright bands separated by complete darkness. Now, new research suggests the answer ...

The Sun is not nailed to the center of the solar system. It moves, wobbles, and traces a small loop through space, tugged by the combined gravity of every planet in orbit around it. Yet the whole ...
