Recent discoveries in cosmology have left scientists scratching their heads, as they challenge our fundamental understanding ...
I keep coming back to a strange idea: what if everything we know about quantum physics is already encoded inside a single ...
If so, laws might change when the universe itself changes phase. In the early universe, as temperatures and densities shifted, forces split apart from a unified origin. What we call “laws” may be like ...
Deep in the heart of the matter, some numbers don't add up. For example, while protons and neutrons are made of quarks, ...
Yet according to physics, information is never destroyed. In principle, a burned book is just as readable as the original—if ...
New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s ...
No one knows for sure, but it is not unlikely that the universe is constructed in a completely different way than the usual theories and models of today predict. The most widely used model today ...
Evidence now suggests the universe’s expansion has started to slow, not speed up. The findings imply dark energy is weakening ...
Physicist Mir Faizal, Adjunct Professor with UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, was not out to shatter the dreams of science fiction enthusiasts when he began to study the limits of ...
What if the bridge between our worlds isn’t language at all, but physics? In a recent episode of SETI Live, theoretical physicist Dr. Daniel Whiteson, co-author of Do Aliens Speak Physics?: And Other ...
