A theoretical particle that travels faster than light, the tachyon has long intrigued physicists and fueled decades of ...

An international collaboration sheds new light on the relationship between quantum theory and thermodynamics. The research group demonstrated that while the laws of quantum theory alone do not ...

New research explores the mechanics behind the "false vacuum" theory, the idea that the universe is in a state of only ...

Protons are far from simple particles — they are swirling cauldrons of quarks, gluons, and quantum entanglement. Scientists ...

For over a century, the Maxwell’s Demon paradox has haunted physics. This thought experiment suggests that a tiny, ...

Mathematical equations have shaped our understanding of the universe, and these nine have played a key role in changing the world.

Newly discovered Quipu, a superstructure in which galaxies group together in clusters and clusters of clusters, is the ...

By observing tiny ripples in spacetime called "gravitational waves" that propagate away from colliding black holes, ...

Emmy Noether showed that fundamental physical laws are just a consequence of simple symmetries. A century later, her insights ...

A team of physicists has taken quantum weirdness to new heights by measuring a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. Their experiment, designed to explore the limits of quantum mechanics, pushes past ...
