For the first time, physicists have watched a beam of positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, behave like a rippling quantum wave instead of a stream of tiny ...

A team led by a physicist from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) recently developed a new quantum theory that explains the "light-induced phase" of matter and predicts its novel functionalities.

An artist's impression of gravitational waves (red and blue) emitted by a merging pair of black holes, inside a cloud of dark ...

As we gaze ever farther into the outer reaches of the universe, we learn more about its origins and ultimate fate. There's one major missing piece of the puzzle: dark matter. Despite making up most of ...

A team of scientists studying lensed ‘Einstein rings’ of light from the distant universe have found that signatures in the rings indicate the kind of dark matter that inhabits the background galaxies.

"It highlights gravity's possible hidden complexity and invites a reevaluation of where dark matter effects originate." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission ...

Some are arguing that Many Worlds and Pilot Wave are really the same. It’s hard to interpret the strange results of quantum mechanics, though many have tried. Interpretations range from the outlandish ...
