Is gravity a quantum phenomenon? That has been one of the big outstanding questions in physics for decades. Together with colleagues from the UK, Anupam Mazumdar, a physicist from the University of ...

Physicists have long suspected that gravity might have a hidden quantum side, but for decades the idea has been more mathematics than measurement. A new proposal for a tabletop experiment now suggests ...

A new look at da Vinci's papers reveals his insightful attempts to probe the nature of gravity 500 years ago. Engineers from Caltech have discovered that Leonardo da Vinci's understanding of gravity - ...
