Quantum mechanics and relativity are the two pillars of modern physics. However, for over a century, their treatment of space ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

Inside high-energy proton collisions, quarks and gluons briefly form a dense, boiling state before cooling into ordinary ...

Exotic hypothetical particles known as axions could potentially be produced inside a nuclear reactor, something The Big Bang Theory’s Sheldon Cooper thought was impossible.

Try as they might, scientists can’t truly rid a space or an object of its energy. But what “zero-point energy” really means ...

Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...

Light is usually described using quantum mechanics when phenomena like entanglement enter the picture. But a new paper shows ...

Researchers have demonstrated for the first time self-induced superradiance in quantum particles, completely flipping what ...

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment rule out the existence of a sterile neutrino, reshaping how scientists think about ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

Plasma physics is the study of a state of matter comprising charged particles. Plasmas are usually created by heating a gas until the electrons become detached from their parent atom or molecule. This ...
