🔬 Scientists Observe Einsteins Gravity in The Quantum World
Published by OOPSONLINE.IN · Source: Phys.org · 1 min read · · Updated
What actually happened
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 shows that a fundamental principle at the heart of Einstein's theory of gravity remains consistent with the behavior of matter in the quantum world. The study, led by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, the University of Ulm and the University of Oxford, was published today (Sept. 2) in Science Advances.
