Gravity and motion make time pass faster on Mars than Earth, reshaping navigation, communication, and future crewed missions.
Two clashing ideas about disorder inside black holes now point to the same strange conclusions, and it could reshape the ...
For nearly a century, something unseen has tugged at the cosmos. In the 1930s, Swiss astronomer Fritz Zwicky noticed galaxies ...
For nearly a century, scientists have understood how crystalline materials—such as metals and semiconductors—bend without ...
Nearly a century after astronomers first proposed dark matter to explain the strange motions of galaxies, scientists may finally be catching a glimpse of it. A University of Tokyo researcher analyzing ...
Physicists using near-absolute-zero detectors have reached unprecedented sensitivity in the hunt for light dark matter. A ...
Particle accelerators are often framed as exotic machines built only to chase obscure particles, but they are really precision tools that use electric fields and magnets to steer tiny beams of matter ...
The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.
Using intense X-rays, researchers captured a buckyball as it expanded, split and shed electrons under strong laser fields.
On Christmas Eve in 2023, a European Space Agency (ESA) spacecraft captured what looks like a barcode etched into the rusty slopes of Mars. The image, taken by ESA's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter, shows ...
