Science Writing, 2 Sep (EFE).- The world of classical physics and quantum physics have very different properties, but a group of researchers have observed, for the first time, an effect of gravity on a falling quantum object that has been predicted for a long time.The discovery published by Science Advances demonstrates [...] The post Scientists observe Einstein's gravity in the quantum world was first published in HolaNews.
For the first time, physicists have observed a long-predicted gravitational effect when a quantum particle falls. The result shows that an important building block of Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity remains intact in the bizarre quantum world. For over a hundred years, physics has relied on two successful theories. Quantum mechanics explains the special behavior of the smallest particles [...] More science? Read the latest article…
AGI - An international team, which includes the Nobel Prize physicist Roger Penrose, observed for the first time a long anticipated effect of gravity on a falling quantum object. The result shows that a fundamental principle at the basis of Einstein's gravity theory remains consistent with the behaviour of matter in the quantum world. The study, conducted by Ben-Gurion University of Negev, Ulm University and Oxford University, has been published…
