Researchers have derived a formula for viral behavior in the Wild Cards, a science fiction series written by a collection of authors about an alien virus called the Wild Card that mutates human DNA.

Scientists used the most massive fundamental particles to break special relativity, but even that didn’t work.

A research team has recently developed a novel algorithm in quantum physics known as 'entanglement microscopy' that enables visualization and mapping of this extraordinary phenomenon at a microscopic ...

White dwarfs serve as natural laboratories, providing scientists with feedback on fundamental physics at an astronomical scale. Recent interest and studies of white dwarfs continue to shed light on ...

A team of physicists has introduced an innovative error-correction method for quantum computers, enabling them to switch ...

“String theory was developed for people to understand the physics of the strong interaction. [...] People started from a very simple model where they saw that if you take two quarks (a fundamental ...

Experiments conducted at Montana State University in collaboration with Columbia University and the Honda Research Institute have resulted in the emission of single photons of light in a new type of ...

The emission of single photons from atomically thin nanoribbons marks a breakthrough in quantum materials, paving the way for ...

Engineering statics (or the study of objects at rest) is a fundamental part of most engineering curricula. It's broadly applicable not only to engineers, but anyone who has anything that needs to stay ...

Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have created a new thermometer using atoms boosted to such high energy levels that they are a thousand times larger than normal.

A new model for light emission from ultrathin materials could ease the development of photonic devices and quantum technology ...

Heisenberg, who would later win the Nobel Prize for Physics, famously came up with quantum mechanics on a two-week vacation ...
