A new theoretical paper has tackled the phenomenon of quantum decoherence, the process by which objects slip out of the quantum world and start behaving classically. The paper approaches this in a new ...

Time travel has shifted from pure fantasy to a serious, if highly constrained, topic in modern physics. The equations that ...

One of the most mind-bending aspects of Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity is time dilation. Time moves more slowly for a person in motion compared to a person at rest. This effect also applies in ...

Physicists from JILA — a CU Boulder and National Institute of Standards and Technology institute — were able to measure an effect called time dilation at the smallest scale ever, which they say could ...

Well connected: an optical clock at PTB was used in the comparison. (Courtesy: PTB) Atomic clocks in France, Germany and the UK have been used to perform the best-ever confirmation of time dilation as ...

Time is a fickle thing. Depending on your frame of reference, it can appear to pass slower or quicker, thanks to a wonky phenomenon known as time dilation that was described in Albert Einstein’s ...

Einstein's theory of relativity has all sorts of weird results that make it difficult to wrap your head around, but one of the weirdest is time dilation. Basically, according to relativity, if you ...

The principle of relativity, as initially described by Galileo, posits that the laws of physics remain consistent regardless of an observer's relative motion. Einstein's special relativity ...

From what we know about No Man’s Sky, aging won’t be a source of in-game anxiety. Although characters can definitely die and the universe is big enough to explore into one’s dotage, the archbishop won ...
