Exploring the BTZ black hole in (2+1)-dimensional gravity took me down a fascinating rabbit hole, connecting ideas I never expected—like black holes and topological phases in quantum matter! When I ...

The sharpest black hole collision ever detected just gave Einstein another win—and raised hopes that the next one might ...

Black holes are often described as cosmic traps from which nothing can escape, yet modern physics says they are not perfectly black. At their edges, quantum effects make them glow with a faint thermal ...

This article is part of a package in collaboration with Forbes on time capsules, preserving information and communicating with the future. Read more from the report. Yet according to physics, ...

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 – ...

A hundred years ago this week, at the height of the quantum revolution, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger submitted a ...
