Astronomers have observed neutron stars that emit more energy than is theoretically possible, and now an explanation might be in the works. Neutron stars are [more…]
Scientists are exploring the behavior of electrons in helicoidal graphene strips, a unique form of graphene with a twisted shape. Graphene is a material known [more…]
Scientists have been unable to observe phasons with mass, but a team of physicists have finally managed it. In metals, the outermost electrons of atoms [more…]
A new study evaluates gravity using string theory, a promising candidate for describing particle interactions at their most fundamental level. Albert Einstein completed his work [more…]
Astronomers looking at how black holes grow over time may have found the answer to one of the biggest problems in cosmology. Black holes are [more…]
Emergence of classicality states that a quantum description of a large object must be the same as its classical description, but this isn’t always so… [more…]
Understanding room temperature superconductivity one step closer thanks to researchers looking at the effects of pressure. Understanding the nature of superconductivity is one of the [more…]
Using 19 different quantum computers, scientists demonstrate how entangled particles break limitations in accuracy on the sub-atomic scale. On the scales of atoms and molecules, [more…]
Since the 1930s, astronomers have postulated that approximately 85% of the matter found in the Universe is made up of a hypothetical form of matter [more…]
Experiments performed using CERN’s the Large Hadron Collider provide insights into the particles that make up protons and their interactions. Protons are part of all [more…]
