As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ...

Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have proven that the Carnot principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does ...

Hypothetical particles called axions have been sought by physicists for decades, as they are the leading candidate for what makes up dark matter. But we may not need new experiments to find exotic ...

In February 2024, a shipwreck off Tobago caused a significant surface oil spill, highlighting the need for accurate modeling ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter candidates. Unlike axions or WIMPs, these particles carry electric charge but ...

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 ...
