Wormholes are a staple of sci-fi, and there’s a possibility that they exist in the real universe. But how would they work? Physicists have now used a quantum processor to simulate a traversable ...

Are black holes surrounded by walls of fire? Does this imply that one (or more) of our most cherished physical principles–and here I’m talking about biggies like quantum theory, the conservation of ...

In May 2019, astronomers picked up something strange in the fabric of spacetime. The LIGO and Virgo detectors recorded a gravitational wave that lasted just one-tenth of a second. The signal, known as ...

Wormholes are science fiction staples that can send travelers across galaxies without having to worry about 1,000-year trips or cosmic roadblocks. Predicted by general relativity, such objects are ...

Scientists have developed a quantum experiment that allows them to study the dynamics, or behavior, of a special kind of theoretical wormhole. Scientists have, for the first time, developed a quantum ...

The final episode of fifth season of the Netflix series Stranger Things is out this week, and the concept of a wormhole ...

Scientists have created a “holographic wormhole” inside a quantum computer for the first time. The pioneering experiment allows researchers to study the ways that theoretical wormholes and quantum ...

Boundary issue: Finding the dual quantity to wormhole volume under the holographic principle is a key outstanding problem in quantum gravity. (Courtesy: AllenMcC., CC ...

Physicist Robert Ehrlich has assembled a fascinating collection of apparently crazy ideas, and subjected them to careful analysis, assigning each a 'cuckoo' index of implausibility. Some of them, like ...

Stranger Things Season 5 reinterprets the Upside Down as a wormhole, a theoretical spacetime bridge. While real wormholes ...

I cannot skip a paper that talks about making wormholes. Even if they are fake wormholes. And even if, after reading the paper, I’m not sure that the researchers have made fake wormholes, I simply can ...
