Physicists have directly observed gravity's effect on a quantum object, supporting Einstein's theory and advancing the quest ...

An international team including Nobel Prize-winning physicist Professor Sir Roger Penrose has observed a long-predicted effect of gravity on a falling quantum object for the first time. The result ...

A new experiment using ultracold rubidium atoms found that a quantum object in free fall behaves consistently with Einstein's ...

Now, scientists in Israel and abroad have taken a new step toward understanding how they interact by directly measuring how gravity changes a quantum object as it falls. The findings could eventually ...
