Quantum phenomena usually demand extremely controlled, cold environments. Scientists traditionally cool systems to near ...

Glenn Close, Katy Perry, Lizzo and Rob Lowe were among the A-listers who saluted scientists at the 11th annual Breakthrough ...

This story begins -- like everything else -- at the Big Bang around 13.8 billion years ago, when the universe first started ...

Up to now, humans have only been able to observe four dimensions in the universe - height, length, width and time. Now, scientists reveal the clues that another does exist.

Quantum logic inspired techniques are promising to enable tests of fundamental physics at the quantum limit in ultrahigh precision experiments using Penning traps. Here, the authors present a ...

A new model has been proposed that challenges the long-standing belief that black holes contain a singularity, a region where space and time break down. This theory suggests that black holes could ...

"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time ...

T he universe is expanding at an accelerated rate and our current best theories to explain this is a mysterious form of ...

The Japanese singer-songwriter’s new album goes deep on their “fascination with science.” WIRED Japan took Hikaru Utada to ...

First, the outer boundary of these cosmic titans is a one-way light-trapping surface called an event horizon, the point at which a black hole's gravity is so powerful that not even light can escape.

I began graduate study in 1975, the midpoint of the first 100 years of quantum mechanics, 50 years ago and 50 years after the discovery of quantum mechanics in 1925 that we celebrate here. So I’ll ...

Special antiferromagnets, called easy-plane antiferromagnets, can carry spin pulses over long distances with minimal energy loss, Shi explained. “These pulses can propagate information through ...
