Observations of the formation of light-nuclei from high-energy collisions may help in the hunt for dark matter.

A detailed suite of simulations conducted by astrophysicists at the Flatiron Institute and their collaborators showed that magnetic fields can produce black holes with masses that were previously ...

Quantum teleportation has moved from science fiction into laboratory reality, but not in the way popular culture imagines.

Scientists are using anesthesia to probe the quantum roots of consciousness—and the research offers tantalizing evidence.

New results from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab found no evidence of a hypothetical fourth flavor of neutrino ...

The Quantum Entanglement Yin-Yang Paradigm So, we’re talking about quantum entanglement, right? It’s this weird, spooky ...

Fundamental physics faces a stubborn paradox: the current impossibility of reconciling the rules of the quantum world with those of gravity, despite a century of efforts. This theoretical ...

Research revealing how “thermal” behaviour can emerge from low-complexity dynamics and not necessarily extremely chaotic ones ...

Ninety million times a year, when protons crash together at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), they produce, in their wreckage, a top quark and an anti-top quark, the heaviest known elementary particles ...

Every time two beams of particles collide inside an accelerator, the universe lets us in on a little secret. Sometimes it's a particle no one has ever seen. Other times, it's a fleeting glimpse of ...

The answer depends on how you think about quantum gravity. If you think that the black hole destroys information irreversibly (i.e. that classical gravity “wins” over quantum mechanics), then the ...

Quantum entanglement—once dismissed by Albert Einstein as “spooky action at a distance”—has long captured the public imagination and puzzled even seasoned scientists. But for today’s quantum ...
