If true, the idea would blow past one of physics’ most sacred limits: that parallel versions of reality can never talk to ...

Neutrino particles have extremely small masses, yet there are so many of them that they carve out the large-scale structure ...

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 ...

Most of the universe is made of dark matter and dark energy, yet scientists still don’t know what either one is. New ultra-sensitive detectors are being built to spot incredibly rare particle ...

Physicists suggest that a single, extraordinarily powerful cosmic signal detected on Earth could be linked to the explosive end of a tiny black hole from the early universe. That signal now stands as ...

UC Santa Cruz physicist Stefano Profumo has put forward two imaginative but scientifically grounded theories that may help solve one of the biggest mysteries in physics: the origin of dark matter. In ...

The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from crunching physics data in the background to actively proposing new theories and ...

From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

WUWM astronomy contributor Jean Creighton discusses cosmology ahead of "Birth of the Universe" at UWM's Manfred Olson ...

Time feels like the most basic feature of reality. Seconds tick, days pass and everything from planetary motion to human memory seems to unfold along a single, irreversible direction. We are born and ...
