Quasicrystals are orderly structures that never repeat. Scientists just showed they can exist in space and time.
In our three-dimensional space, elementary particles neatly filter into either bosons or fermions. But in lower dimensions, ...
A new theory suggests the universe’s greatest secrets are hiding in a “zeptouniverse” that’s ready to be explored—without ...
Why Information, Not Matter, May Be the True Foundation of Reality - Rethinking Reality Through Physics, Information, ...
“For the last 20 years, people believed that the cosmological constant is positive, and the universe will expand forever,” says Tye, a professor emeritus at Cornell. A positive constant acts like a ...
To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...
A physicist proposes that the universe might not be empty but act like a viscous fluid, resisting expansion. This bold idea ...
If true, the idea would blow past one of physics’ most sacred limits: that parallel versions of reality can never talk to ...
The shape of the cosmos depends on a balance of two competing forces: the pull of gravity and the expansion driven by dark ...
The puzzle Einstein and Rosen were addressing was never about space travel, but about how quantum fields behave in curved spacetime. I ...
New data from major dark-energy observatories suggest the universe may not expand forever after all. A Cornell physicist calculates that the cosmos is heading toward a dramatic reversal: after ...
A physicist proposes that the universe is not empty space, but is a viscous fluid, fueling the expansion and contraction we see.
