Chemists at the School of Science of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have recently made ...

Scientists are using trapped ions in cutting-edge experiments to hunt for signs of an undiscovered particle that might help ...

A new material developed at Penn State defies a fundamental law of physics, opening doors to highly efficient solar cells.

The discovery of the cosmic acceleration problem truly inspired me as a teenage physics nerd. Recent, related revelations about dark energy will hopefully capture the interest of today’s young ...

Dark energy may have a completely unknown aspect of physics acting as an accomplice in its efforts to defy gravity, suppressing the growth of large-scale structures like galaxy superclusters.

Last year, we reported on an exciting hint of new physics in the first data analysis results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)—namely that the dark energy, rather than being ...

Newton will be compatible with Google DeepMind’s ecosystem of robotic development tools, including its physics engine, MuJoCo, which simulates multi-joint robot movements, Nvidia added.

Roland Winston, SB’56, SM’57, PhD’63—a pioneer in solar energy, engineering, and physics—died Feb. 8 at his home in California. He was 88. Winston was a University of Chicago professor in the ...

In the fall of 1915, the foundations of physics began to crack. Einstein’s new theory of gravity seemed to imply that it should be possible to create and destroy energy, a result that threatened to ...

1969: High-energy physics at CERN 1969: High-energy physics at CERN Beneath the ground near Geneva, scientists conduct cutting edge research into high-energy physics.

"While particle physics is deeply rooted in quantum mechanics, the observation of quantum entanglement in a new particle system and at much higher energy than previously possible is remarkable ...
