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

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 ...

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

A battery roughly the size of a sugar cube, with no moving parts and no need for recharging, just produced electricity from ...

When we think of industrial materials, we mostly think of commodities like steel, coal, aluminum, ceramics, and other easy-to-identify solid materials. But equally important are all the various gases ...

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 ...

Highlights from the last week of May, 2026: A key climate tipping point is disrupting the Arctic Ocean food chain (more of a lowlight, I guess). Scuba-diving tourism may not be the benefit to coral ...
