Astronomers have uncovered a gargantuan black hole that appears to sit almost alone in space, with hardly any stars around it ...

Researchers at TU Wien have discovered a quantum system where energy and mass move with perfect efficiency. In an ultracold ...

For more than a century, scientists have wondered why physical structures like blood vessels, neurons, tree branches, and ...

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...

Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in ...

Shootings at Brown University and Bondi Beach were both used to justify anti-Palestinian targeting. It's no coincidence.

Physicists are exploring whether hidden dimensions and the shape of space could help explain why fundamental particles have ...

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis will share the prize. “There is no advanced technology used today that does not rely on quantum mechanics and quantum physics. Examples are easy to ...

Mass and Energy are not the same thing but they are equivalent in the sense that mass can be transformed into energy and energy can be transformed into mass providing the total energy is conserved.

Talk about epic. A collision of two black holes is so extreme that it’s challenging physics theories of how large black holes form and merge. The two black holes had masses bigger than any before ...
