Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm afternoon, he saw an apple fall from a tree and wondered why it should fall down ...

As physicists search for a theory of quantum gravity, new results show that classical gravity can still interact with quantum fields to allow matter to become entangled. When you purchase through ...

Gravity is usually presented as the most familiar of nature’s forces, the quiet background pull that keeps feet on sidewalks ...

Hula hooping is so commonplace that we may overlook some interesting questions it raises: 'What keeps a hula hoop up against gravity?' and 'Are some body types better for hula hooping than others?' A ...

A new discovery suggests gravitational fields can enable matter to become quantum entangled — and that's even if the concept of quantum gravity does not exist. The idea comes from two London-based ...
