A new breakthrough study fromRutgers University is offering insights into one of the universe’s most extraordinary ...

Everyone in physics that came after Max owes him a debt of gratitude. German physicist Max Planck publishes his groundbreaking study of the effect of radiation on a “blackbody” substance, and the ...

A new discovery, made using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), may just be the weirdest exoplanet yet, possessing an ...

In the past, physicist Stephen Hawking has hosted a champagne party for time travelers with balloons and hors d’oeuvres.

The phenomenon, known as luminous fast blue optical transients or LFBOTs, comes in the form of short, bright flashes of light ...

The researchers employed an innovative data analysis method based on predictability dynamics. By examining the evolution of ...
