Our universe plays by certain rules, which originate from different branches of physics. But sometimes the rules seem ...

Oftentimes, we think of space as an endless, mostly empty vacuum, a silent backdrop where planets, stars, and galaxies play out their dance. We also think of time as something separate, a steady ...

A brilliantly produced and ferociously acted time-and-space obsessed drama that has plenty on its mind, but has trouble communicating it.

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

Physicists of the 19th century assumed that space was distinct from time – and two researchers now suspect they were correct to do so. Their conclusion, which comes from considering the behaviour of ...

Asymmetric collapse: Simulations of core-collapse supernovae indicate that existing gravitational-wave detectors such as LIGO could spot telltale signs of cosmic distortions known as gravitational ...

Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity—which explains gravity as the product of the distortion of space and time—may not be universally applicable. This is the conclusion of physicists from ...

A time-to-digital converter (TDC) is like a stopwatch measuring the elapsed interval between two events with picosecond precision, converting this into a digital value for post-processing. Many space ...
