With support from the W. M. Keck Foundation, a Stevens–Yale collaboration is now transforming graviton detection from a ...

Physicists are preparing an experiment that sounds like science fiction: a device designed to snare individual particles of ...

Physicists from Stevens Institute of Technology and Yale University have launched an experimental program to detect gravitons ...

Scientists have determined a way to measure gravity on microscopic levels, perhaps bringing them closer to forming a theory of "quantum gravity" and to solving some major cosmic mysteries. Quantum ...

Let’s talk about quantum gravity experiments that can be done here on Earth! If we discover how to connect quantum mechanics with general relativity we’ll pretty much win physics. There are multiple ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

Artistic representation of the implemented photonic experiment in which entanglement between the polarizations of single photons is mediated by the independent degree of freedom of the photon path.

Image shows a laser beam in Gavin Morley’s lab probes the quantum properties of a diamond. Scientists are developing an experiment to test whether gravity is quantum In quantum mechanics, which ...

As such, scientists have tinkered with theories for "quantum gravity" and searched for its hypothetical carrier particle, dubbed the “graviton,” but all experiments have come up empty so far.
