When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it ...

A visualization of a mathematical apparatus used to capture the physics and behavior of electrons moving on a lattice. Each pixel represents a single interaction between two electrons. Until now, ...

A new study by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) now bridges ...

A new study links the universe’s expansion to quantum topology, suggesting that hidden mathematical structures may stabilize ...

Physicists are rethinking one of quantum mechanics’ biggest puzzles: how fuzzy possibilities become definite reality. New ...

What exactly is … everything? What is space-time? At one extreme, you’ve got the weird rules of quantum physics that deal with subatomic particles. At the other extreme, you’ve got the vast expanses ...

A new recipe of "quadratic gravity" could help to better define the picture of the Big Bang and the singularity that existed ...

The idea that everything that exists can be built from the bottom up has long held sway among physicists. Now, a new kind of ...
