While the existence of extra dimensions is a cool idea, it's currently not supported by any evidence ...

Scientists studying dark matter have published new findings based on a warped extra dimension model that suggests particles in a fifth dimension.

Physicists are quietly testing wild new theories that treat a hidden fifth dimension as more than science fiction, suggesting ...

In an unprecedented step, researchers crafted a detailed model compatible with the universe’s accelerated expansion.

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 ...
