Scientists are using trapped ions in cutting-edge experiments to hunt for signs of an undiscovered particle that might help unravel the mystery of dark matter. The Standard Model of particle physics o ...

Modern low-power solutions to computer memory rely heavily on the manipulation of the magnetic properties of materials.

"It's a very, very beautiful calculation, but it's the best example I know of the relationship between these rather abstract quantities perhaps and something that you can look at in a telescope." ...

A new material developed at Penn State defies a fundamental law of physics, opening doors to highly efficient solar cells.

A member of the physics faculty at the Warsaw University of Technology (WUT) in Poland and one of his graduate students were ...

From four-dimensional hexagons to the mind-bending amplituhedron, geometrical shapes are wilder than we learn at school - and ...

Newton's laws of motion, often perceived as abstract, are actually evident in everyday experiences. The first law explains ...

Artificial intelligence can beat world champions at chess, generate stunning artwork, and write code that would take humans ...

There is a certain old-fashioned elegance in the way Professor Nicolai Reshetikhin teaches. In an age dominated by digital presentations and slide decks, this world-renowned mathematical physicist ...

Heat and energy are central concepts in thermodynamics, an important field of physics and even one of its cornerstones. Information theory, on the other hand, is an abstract topic in mathematics.

We see that the description of the fade of an abstract isolated social flow within the framework of an exponential decay function (Equation 31), for example, interest in a topic or news item on the ...

Emmy Noether was a mathematician who discovered perhaps the most profound idea in contemporary physics. Noether’s theorem, which she formulated in 1915, says that symmetries in the universe give ...
