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.

Heavy dark matter might disrupt current physics models, potentially changing our understanding of the universe.

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

Like stretch marks left on skin that expanded too quickly or cracks embedded in freezing ice, cosmic strings are artifacts of ...

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 ...

Physicists have created a 3D shape called the cosmohedron, which can be used to reconstruct the quantum wavefunction of the ...

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

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 ...

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.

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