Three thought experiments involving “demons” have haunted physics for centuries. What should we make of them today?
By establishing a larger principle for how things shatter, certain energy-intensive tasks could gain an advantage.
IISc researchers connect Ramanujan’s century-old pi formulae with modern physics, uncovering surprising mathematical ...
Even the best telescopes can’t see exoplanets. It’s all about watching for jiggly stars, blue shifts, and transits.
There is an important and unresolved tension in cosmology regarding the rate at which the universe is expanding, and ...
If you're going to Mars you'd best take along a jar of anti-aging cream because while you're there you're going to age faster ...
Dreaming of visiting other stars? The universe has built in walls we cannot break. This video confronts the harsh physics ...
It is something like the "Holy Grail" of physics: unifying particle physics and gravitation. The world of tiny particles is described extremely well by quantum theory, while the world of gravitation ...
Ramanujan’s insights into pi are now guiding scientists toward a deeper understanding of how the universe works.
New measurements using gravitational lensing suggest the universe’s current expansion rate does not agree with signals from ...
