Did the early universe have just one spatial dimension? That’s the mind-boggling concept at the heart of a theory that UB physicist Dejan Stojkovic and colleagues proposed in 2010. They suggested that ...

For more than a century, physicists have suspected that the familiar three dimensions of space and one of time might be only a sliver of reality. Extra dimensions, if they exist, would not just be a ...

Modern physics suggests the universe may operate in more than the three dimensions of space we experience. Some advanced theories propose as many as 11 dimensions, most of them hidden at incredibly ...

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 ...

Some string theorists predict at least 10 dimensions, most of which humans can’t perceive. | Andriy Onufriyenko/Moment/Getty Images Ask someone to name every ...

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 ...

Physicists who work with a concept called string theory envision our universe as an eerie place with at least nine spatial dimensions, six of them hidden from us, perhaps curled up in some way so they ...

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, ...

Not every existential crisis ends in dread. In the best cases, it opens new dimensions. When Turkish-Austrian artist Alea Pinar De Pre conceptualized her most recent collections of works, it was to ...

In 1919, physicist Theodor Kaluza hypothesized that extra dimensions might solve some outstanding problems in physics. And while we haven't found any evidence yet for anything outside our normal ...
