Is gravity not actually a force? Forcing theory to meet experiments: Is gravity a result of differences in informational density? Or is this theory too far out there to address all the issues present in modern physics? Here, we take a look at a recent proposal that purports to change how we view the world, and a counter-proposal that says nothing has changed.

Tevatron data suggests new, unknown particle—but not the Higgs: Researchers find signs that a particle with a mass of around 144GeV is producing jets of particles in the Tevatron’s detectors. This is a bit surprising since we don’t know of any particle that has those properties.
