The notion that our universe might be a giant simulation has intrigued scientists and philosophers for decades. Recent ...

The universe seems stable, but an unlikely shift in the Higgs field, a quantum field that pervades all of space, could trigger a bubble that passes through the universe, annihilating all matter.

I've long been fascinated by the fundamental mystery of our universe's origin. In my work, I explore an alternative to the traditional singularity-based models of cosmology. Instead of a universe ...

A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

For a century, quantum theory has passed every experimental test, but physicists can’t agree on how to use it to paint a ...

The End of the Universe Could Begin with a Quantum Bubble A freak particle physics process could wipe out all galaxies and life—but it’s wildly unlikely ...

Instead of the big bang, some physicists have suggested that our universe may have come from a big bounce following another universe contracting – but quantum theory could rule this out ...

But assuming the universe is finite, the team argues that since the resources of potential simulators would have to be finite, “a volume containing a simulation will be finite and a lattice ...

The universe seems stable, but an unlikely shift in the Higgs field, a quantum field that pervades all of space, could trigger a bubble that passes through the universe, annihilating all matter.

'Universe's awkward handshake' -- simplifying information processing using photons a quantum breakthrough Date: May 12, 2025 Source: Griffith University Summary: Researchers have developed a ...

Even with k = 0, the quantum potential allows for a smooth transition from the Euclidean phase to the Lorentzian phase (our familiar time-evolving universe).
