A multi-institutional team of physicists is proposing an experiment to test whether gravity behaves as a quantum entity when ...

Emergent gravity is a bold idea. It claims that the force of gravity is a mere illusion, more akin to friction or heat—a ...

All matter has a gravitational field that attracts other objects. The more mass an object has, the greater its gravitational field will be. For example, the Earth has a greater gravitational field ...

It opened up an entire field of physics, but left Einstein with some nagging questions. The problems of gravity and acceleration would not go away. After thinking about the problems for 10 years ...
