Until recently, scientists had never detected black holes in the “mass gap”—now, particle physicists are exploring ideas beyond the Standard Model that could explain them. On May 21, 2019, a ripple in ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

"We are thrilled that our app 'Kitty Q' was honored as a 'Serious Game' at the Games Innovation Award Saxony. The references to quantum physics are always there, but our game can also be played ...

Two measurements of the Hubble constant disagree. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. The universe is expanding faster than expected, ...

Quantum entanglement is one of the strangest and most fascinating phenomena in physics. Even Einstein didn’t believe it - he called it “spooky action at a distance” - but science has proven it true.

An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in ...

Hurtling around Jupiter and its 79 moons is the Juno spacecraft, a NASA-funded satellite that sends images from the largest planet in our solar system back to researchers on Earth. These photographs ...

Quantum computers, quantum cryptography, and quantum (insert name here) are often in the news these days. Articles about them inevitably refer to entanglement, a property of quantum physics that makes ...

You may think of physics as a way to explain the behaviors of things like black holes, colliding particles, falling apples, and quantum computers. But a small group physicists today is working on a ...
