Loop quantum gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative, background-independent approach to quantising spacetime that seeks to merge the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this ...

Such close-cropped quantum hair would not be directly observable as a change in the signals from black hole collisions, but it might be visible in other ways. For example, unusual aftereffects called ...

Imagine you’re standing in front of a closed door. Behind it is a teenager’s bedroom, and your task is to rate how messy it is on a scale of 1 to 10. But here’s the twist: you can’t open the door – ...
