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

Most physicists believe that our universe began with a Big Bang. But how did the laws of nature – for example, the strength of gravity, the speed of light, and the stre ...

Quantum sensors offer exceptional precision in measuring magnetic fields, gravity and motion, making them invaluable for defense. However, they struggle in real-world conditions, especially on moving ...

A Purdue University researcher has created and validated a patent-pending free-flying robotic centrifuge system called ...

The Northwest Athabasca Project has undergone exploration since the 1970s so there is an enormous database of geological work that has been completed historically (ground sampling, geophysical surveys ...

It absorbs and, in many cases, emits electromagnetic radiation in the ... Matter has mass, creating the force of gravity, the effects of which can be readily observed. All these things make ...

Dark matter is more than five times as abundant as all the visible matter in the universe. So why can't we see any of it?

Like stretch marks left on skin that expanded too quickly or cracks embedded in freezing ice, cosmic strings are artifacts of what the universe looked like in the moments before it rapidly changed ...

A collaboration between Nordita, the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics, hosted by Stockholm University, KTH and Google Quantum AI explores how gravitational fields influence quantum computing ...
