Physicists Develop New Method to Detect Tiny Fluctuations in Spacetime
Physicists at the University of Warwick have developed a new framework to detect tiny spacetime fluctuations known as “quantum foam,” a long-standing prediction of quantum gravity theories. The study maps different types of spacetime noise to measurable signals in interferometers such as LIGO and smaller laboratory setups. By translating abstra...

'Sudden Death' Of Quantum Fluctuations Sparks Superconductor Mystery
Physicists from Princeton have identified a sudden shift in quantum behavior during experiments with a three-atom-thin insulator, demonstrating its ability to transition effortlessly into a superconductor.

Warp Drive Experiment to Make Atoms Invisible May Test Stephen Hawking's Most Famous Prediction
A new warp speed experiment might provide an indirect verification of physicist Stephen Hawking's black hole prediction. Scientists propose to capture a glimpse of the ethereal quantum glow that envelops things travelling at close to the speed of light by coaxing an atom to become invisible. Because the effect is so closely related to the Hawking e...
