The crazy world of quantum mechanics can best be summed up by Niels Bohr’s famous quote: “For those who are not shocked when they first come across quantum theory, cannot possibly have understood it.” ...

One of the general theories of relativity, ' time dilation, ' is a phenomenon in which when the gravity applied to two points is different, the time at the two points travels differently. When we say ...

University of Hamburg’s Dr. Gerd Bruder has done some research into the issue of time perception in virtual environments, and he’s discovered some fascinating results that he presented at the IEEE VR ...

Research published recently in the journal Nature Communications considers the influence of the quantum mechanics concept of superposition on timekeeping. Superposition refers to the ability of an ...

Einstein's theory of general relativity implied that the distant, or ancient, universe was moving much slower than it does now, but it's actually difficult to look back in time. This time, Professor ...

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 ...

The flow of time isn’t as consistent as we might think – gravity slows it down, so clocks on the surface of Earth tick slower than those in space. Now researchers have measured time passing at ...

We learned how motion gives matter its mass, but how does motion affect time? We learned how motion gives matter its mass, but how does motion affect time? Let’s dive deeper into the true nature of ...
