Dyson sphere stability — once considered an impossible physics problem — may be within reach. A peer-reviewed paper in ...

Picture a planet hurtling through interstellar space with no star to warm it, flung from its birthplace by a gravitational ...

One reason to test ever larger Schrödinger’s kittens is they might show us that quantum mechanics itself breaks down before ...

Sized Factory, and AI Deleted the Internet This week begins with a management lesson so clean it should be printed on the inside of every corporate ...

Physicists know that their elegant theoretical description of forces and particles — the standard model of particle physics — must be incomplete, because there are a host of phenomena it cannot ...

Cosmic rays seen at Earth show a wide range of particle energies, from 107 electron-volts (eV) to more than 1020 eV, the latter being about the same as the kinetic energy of a 450 gram football ...

Scientists working at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider may be seeing the strongest hints yet of physics beyond the Standard Model — the decades-old theory that explains the fundamental particles and ...

Mathematicians are challenging the idea that dark energy is responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe. In a new paper published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, mathematicians ...

Atomic and molecular physics it the study of the properties, dynamics and interactions of the basic (but not fundamental) building blocks of matter. A crucial component of this is understanding the ...
