Fermilab scientists have been conducting experiments to look for quantum fluctuations of space and time at the smallest scale imaginable according to known physics. At this limit, the Planck length, ...

The universe began with an unimaginably hot, dense state. Inflation rapidly expanded the universe's size. Before inflation, the universe existed in a period called the GUT era where forces were ...

Scientists with Fermilab recently announced the successful measurement of quantum spacetime at the smallest imaginable scale in known physics, known as the Planck length. According to quantum ...

This article explores how our understanding of the universe has evolved—from the scale of everyday experience down to the ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter ...

(Phys.org) —While the natural world is replete with compounds that form the basis of many disease-fighting pharmaceuticals, it is also the case that humans and other mammals produce their own ...
