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

Quantum chaos used to be the kind of phrase that made experimental physicists wince, a shorthand for fragile devices going ...

Three ways to reduce these collisions: influence driver behavior, influence animal behavior and separate animals from roads. “You can recover costs [of building wildlife overpass or underpass] in two ...

Orbital debris stopped being an abstract risk in 2025 and briefly became a live emergency, forcing operators to scramble ...

It took 125 years, but in 2025 a team of mathematicians discovered the solution to a long-puzzling problem about the ...

A postgraduate student from Bangladesh steps into CERN’s vast research ecosystem, navigating cutting-edge physics while confronting the limits of global scientific access ...

Why do atomic nuclei, which should easily break apart, form more readily in extreme environments? This cosmic mystery, which has puzzled scientists for decades, has finally been solved. The National R ...

The study, conducted by Brookhaven theoretical physicist Weiguo Yin and described in a recent paper published in Physical Review B, is the first paper emerging from the "AI Jam Session" earlier this ...

The result: The protons and neutrons necessary for the formation of deuterons are released during the decay of very short-lived, highly energetic particle states (so-called resonances) and then bind ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of ...

A group of math teachers in Tucson, Arizona, came under fire for their Halloween costumes this weekend. The teachers’ bloodied white t-shirts with the phrase “Problem solved” written across the chest ...
