Djuna Croon receives funding from the University of Sussex. Sometimes, the hardest job for a theoretical physicist is telling the story. The work in this field can be conducted entirely in the ...

The geometry of space, the setting in which physical laws operate, may hold clues to some of the biggest unanswered questions in fundamental physics. The underlying structure of spacetime itself could ...

Recent scientific discussions suggest that the fourth dimension might be concealed within our everyday perception of reality, challenging conventional views of space and time. This idea intersects ...

For the first time, physicists have built a two-dimensional experimental system that allows them to study the physical properties of materials theorized to exist only in four-dimensional space. An ...

For more than a century, physicists have suspected that the familiar three dimensions of space might be only a small slice of ...

Scientists are investigating the existence of hidden dimensions in our universe, which could potentially revolutionize our ...

As its name suggests, dark matter — material which makes up about 85% of the mass in the universe — emits no light, eluding easy detection. Its properties, too, remain fairly obscure. Physicists have ...
