Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

Yet according to physics, information is never destroyed. In principle, a burned book is just as readable as the original—if ...

Out-of-equilibrium states that deviate from thermodynamic equilibrium are crucial not only for biological systems but also for designing synthetic functional materials. Now, researchers from Japan ...

A breakthrough in manipulating dark excitons could pave the way for next-generation quantum communication systems and ultra-compact photonic devices. A research group from the City University of New Y ...

Minnesotans and others around the country got a rare treat on Nov. 11 with an aurora borealis supercharged by the sun.

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit ...

Dr. Marcus Hale, a physicist at the University of Cambridge, has proposed a fascinating theory that could potentially ...

When an intense laser pulse hits an electron at rest, the latter performs a quiver motion with the frequency of the light ...

When an intense laser pulse hits a stationary electron, it performs a trembling motion at the frequency of the light field.

The engineering of optically synthesized magnetic fields allows neutral atoms to emulate charged behavior, paving the way for ...

An international team, spearheaded by Prof. Luciano Rezzolla at the Goethe-Universität, has invented a novel approach to ...

Quantum mechanics has at last been formulated exclusively with real numbers, bringing a mathematical puzzle at the heart of ...
