A clever mathematical tool known as virtual particles unlocks the strange and mysterious inner workings of subatomic ...

Quantum entanglement is one seriously long-distance relationship. Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter ...

Can we reveal objects that are hidden in environments completely opaque to the human eye? With conventional imaging ...

NASA's SPHEREx is exploring the galaxies to answer the question of where we all come from while sending back jaw-dropping ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

Knowing how many calories you burned on a run isn’t required. Calorie-counting can foster a complicated—and sometimes unhealthy—relationship with food and exercise. When you go for a run, you know you ...

Black holes are so strange that physicists have long wondered if they are quite what they seem. Now we are set to find out if ...

Scientists using a global array of radio telescopes have detected the universe’s lowest-mass dark object by observing how it warped light through gravitational lensing. The invisible mass, about a ...

Using newly developed mathematical methods, scientists found a way to detect the position of objects hidden in opaque ...

On the night of Oct. 5, 1923, Edwin Hubble observed a strange star that flickered in intensity at regular intervals. The star ...
