By Partha Sinha Entropy fascinates because it announces itself. It spreads, decays and disperses. It makes noise. Like Kali, ...

Inside high-energy proton collisions, quarks and gluons briefly form a dense, boiling state before cooling into ordinary ...

Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

For more than a century, gravity has been the stubborn outlier in physics, resisting every attempt to merge Einstein’s smooth ...

British physicist Melvin Vopson proposes that gravity reduces information entropy, hinting that the universe may function ...

Nanoscale device employs magnetic tunnel junctions to convert thermal noise into binary signals for random number generation.

Rebecca Newberger Goldstein argues that a good life is one that seeks to create order out of a natural state of chaos.

What is the fundamental nature of reality? What is the true essence of human consciousness? These questions will take center stage at the Nature of Reality Seminar, a major interdisciplinary gathering ...

Quantum information theory is a field of study that examines how quantum technologies store and process information. Over the ...

High energy proton collisions can be pictured as a roiling sea of quarks and gluons, including short lived virtual particles. At first glance, this ...

Forgetting feels like a failure of attention, but physics treats it as a fundamental process with a measurable price. At the ...
