The three-dimensional world we see around us now emerges from information contained in a two-dimensional space. This is the Holographic Principle, albeit in very simple terms. Notably, it does not ...

If the universe is 13.8 billion years old, why is the observable universe 46 billion light-years across? This video explains ...

The universe may be a hologram, according to a new mathematical model developed at the Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien). If this is true, it means we could all be living our lives in just two ...

It may sound like the outlandish plot of a poorly conceived science-fiction flick. But some scientists now claim that humanity, the Earth, and everything else in the universe are really part of a ...

At first glance, there is not the slightest doubt: to us, the universe looks three dimensional; however, the “holographic principle” asserts that a mathematical description of the universe actually ...

This news release is available in German. At first glance, there is not the slightest doubt: to us, the universe looks three dimensional. But one of the most fruitful theories of theoretical physics ...

The science blogosphere, skinny from all those climate change studies, periodically binges on the results of theoretical physics experiments that undermine our native understandings of the universe.

In 1998, scientists discovered that our universe expands with acceleration, and in order to explain this effect, the concept of dark matter was introduced. This is a special type of energy that fills ...

Associate professor of physics Matthew Headrick researches one of the most cutting-edge ideas in theoretical physics. It proposes that the universe is a three-dimensional image projected off a ...
