Could reality be made of more dimensions than those we perceive? The question has consumed some of the most brilliant physics minds for over a century, from unifying space and time into spacetime by ...

When someone mentions "different dimensions," we tend to think of things like parallel universes – alternate realities that exist parallel to our own, but where things work or happened differently.

We experience three spatial dimensions in nature: length, width and height. In addition, we perceive time as a fourth dimension. But some theoretical physicists have speculated that “extra” spatial ...

(Phys.org)—The possibility that other universes exist beyond our own universe is tantalizing, but seems nearly impossible to test. Now a group of physicists has suggested that the Large Hadron ...

What would the universe be like if it had four spatial dimensions instead of three? Experimentalists are starting to explore the physics of higher dimensions with the help of recently developed tricks ...
