Scientists observe a visible time crystal for the first time, revealing a phase of matter that repeats patterns through time.

Shaped by a different biology or culture, other intelligent civilisations – if they’re out there – might understand the ...

Pushed down to a certain scale, the laws of physics seem to fall apart. Astrid Eichhorn, a leader in an area of study called asymptotic safety, thinks we just need to push a little further.

Quantum mechanics is both the most powerful theory physicists have ever devised and the most baffling. On the one hand, ...

Electrons are tiny and constantly in motion. How they behave in a crystal lattice determines key material properties: electrical conductivity, magnetism, or novel quantum effects. Anyone aiming to ...

Before humanity sent satellites, telescopes, humans and weapons into space, Robert Goddard experimented with the first liquid ...

Dimensions beyond the four we’re familiar with could solve a host of problems in physics and cosmology. Columnist Leah Crane ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only under specific conditions that researchers have struggled for decades to ...

Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...

On March 16, 1926, Clark University professor Robert Goddardfired up a rocket nicknamed “Nell,” powered by a blend of ...

A new quantum communication method uses the temporal Talbot effect to simplify high-dimensional quantum key distribution.

Currently, one of those now-defunct spacecraft might be plummeting toward the planet’s surface. Days ago, the U.S. Space ...
