In a historic achievement, a team of scientists including passionate young Indian researchers has successfully re-evaluated Newton’s First Law of Motion, proving that it no longer holds true at quantum and relativistic scales. Their research paper, published in June 2025, is already being recognized as a landmark contribution to the merging fields of quantum mechanics and relativity.
The study argues that motion is not simply force-free and linear as Newton once believed—but is deeply intertwined with spacetime geometry, vacuum energy, and probabilistic quantum interactions. It brings forward examples like muon lifetime dilation and vacuum decoherence, clearly showing how Newton’s framework collapses under extreme conditions.
The Indian contributors—students, enthusiasts, and members of the American Physical Society and other elite bodies—have dedicated long hours to this project. “This wasn’t just research—it was a mission to understand reality better,” says Vishwanath Barve, one of the lead authors. Their work stands as an inspiration for the next generation of Indian physicists to take on the universe’s deepest questions.
