Could reality be made of more dimensions than those we perceive? The question has consumed some of the most brilliant physics minds for over a century, from unifying space and time into spacetime by ...

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 ...

Djuna Croon receives funding from the University of Sussex. Sometimes, the hardest job for a theoretical physicist is telling the story. The work in this field can be conducted entirely in the ...

What if time were the only truly fundamental dimension of our Universe? A recent theory proposes a radically different vision of reality, where time has three dimensions. This approach challenges our ...

Researchers have demonstrated that graphene can be used as a building block to create new 3D crystal structures which are not confined by what nature can produce. Sandwiching individual graphene ...

To the best of our knowledge, we humans can only experience this world in three spatial dimensions (plus one time dimension): up and down, left and right, and forward and backward. But in two physics ...

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 ...

Researchers attempting to solve the problem of dark matter have proposed a particle that can travel to an unseen fifth dimension. The work is entirely hypothetical, as it attempts to explain a type of ...

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 ...
