Physicists have taken a bold step beyond Einstein's special theory of relativity, proposing an expansion of special relativity that includes observers moving faster than light. This fresh perspective ...

Some scientists think quantum mechanics may be working in a lower-dimensional setting, giving us the illusion of our 3-dimensional universe. This idea changes the nature of our perceived reality, ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Did the early universe have just one spatial dimension? That's the mind-boggling concept at the heart of a theory that University at Buffalo physicist Dejan Stojkovic and colleagues ...
