Scientists at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), a user facility for nuclear physics research operated by the U.S.

Scientists from Japan's RIKEN research centre have created the most detailed simulation of the Milky Way ever made.

If so, laws might change when the universe itself changes phase. In the early universe, as temperatures and densities shifted, forces split apart from a unified origin. What we call “laws” may be like ...

Humanity has achieved remarkable feats, yet 95% of the universe remains invisible and unexplained. Our theories, general ...

Chris Neu studies dark matter at the Large Hadron Collider, bringing big ideas to his classroom and students into his lab.

Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

In modern physics, the Higgs boson is famous for giving particles their mass. But a new study suggests an entirely different ...

BEIJING -- Scientists using China's Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) found that black holes, devouring ...

Researchers used IBM’s quantum computers to create scalable quantum circuits that simulate matter under extreme conditions, offering new insight into fundamental forces and the origins of the universe ...

Dark matter may be invisible, but scientists are getting closer to understanding whether it follows the same rules as ...

When we think creatively, produce novel ideas, or otherwise have “Eureka” moments, we may actually unlock access to a ...
