ALCF helps tackle the Large Hadron Collider's big data challenge
Nov 09, 2015 (SPX)
Argonne physicists are using Mira to perform simulations of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments with a leadership-class supercomputer for the first time, sh...
Have scientists found evidence of a parallel universe?
Nov 04, 2015 (UPI)
Caltech cosmologist Ranga-Ram Chary thinks he may have found evidence of a parallel universe. In a new study, published in the Astrophysical Journal, Chary sugg...
Calcium-48's 'neutron skin' thinner than previously thought
Nov 03, 2015 (SPX)
An international team led by Gaute Hagen of the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory used America's most powerful supercomputer, Titan, to compu...
Birth of universe modeled in massive data simulation
Oct 30, 2015 (SPX)
Researchers are sifting through an avalanche of data produced by one of the largest cosmological simulations ever performed, led by scientists at the U.S. Depar...
Halo satellite will search for 'missing' normal matter
Oct 30, 2015 (SPX)
Studies of the early universe show that 5 percent of all mass and energy should be in normal matter-that is, the visible stuff of the universe, composed of prot...
Physics of booming and burping sand dunes revealed
Oct 29, 2015 (SPX)
Avalanching sand from dune faces in Death Valley National Park and the Mojave Desert can trigger loud, rumbling "booming" or short bursts of "burping" sounds - ...
China to start work on turbo-charged super-collider by 2020: report
Oct 29, 2015 (AFP)
China will begin work on the world's largest super-collider in 2020, a mega-machine aimed at increasing understanding of the elusive Higgs boson, state-run medi...
Film in 4-D with ultrashort electron pulses
Oct 29, 2015 (SPX)
Physicists of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat (LMU) in Munich shorten electron pulses down to 30 femtoseconds duration. This enables them to gain detailed in...
May the 5th force be with you
Oct 29, 2015 (SPX)
Discovering possible new forces in nature is no mean task. The discovery of gravity linked to Newton's arguably apocryphal apple experiment has remained anchore...
Researchers create better algorithm for simulating particles in Fermi Sea
Oct 28, 2015 (SPX)
A North Carolina State University physicist and his German colleagues have created a new, more precise algorithm for simulating particle interactions when a sin...
Black Hole Has Major Flare
Oct 28, 2015 (JPL)
The baffling and strange behaviors of black holes have become somewhat less mysterious recently, with new observations from NASA's Explorer missions Swift and t...
Physicists learn how to control the movement of electrons in a molecule
Oct 26, 2015 (SPX)
Researchers have, for the first time, been able to track the movement of an electron in a molecule in real time and have demonstrated that these processes can b...
Hubble spies Big Bang frontiers
Oct 23, 2015 (ESA)
Observations by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have taken advantage of gravitational lensing to reveal the largest sample of the faintest and earliest know...
NASA Goddard Scientist Gives 'Outlaw' Particles Less Room to Hide
Oct 22, 2015 (SPX)
Studying the highest-energy particles in the cosmos provides scientists with a way to test how well they understand the cutting edge of physics. Recently, scien...
Evolution of the universe in an unmatched precision
Oct 22, 2015 (SPX)
Within modern cosmology, the Big Bang marks the beginning of the universe and the creation of matter, space and time about 13.8 billion years ago. Since then, t...
Historic Delft experiments tests Einstein's 'God does not play dice' theory
Oct 22, 2015 (SPX)
Random number generators developed at ICFO - The Institute of Photonic Sciences, by the groups of ICREA Professors Morgan W. Mitchell and Valerio Pruneri, playe...
Astronomers catch a black hole shredding a star to pieces
Oct 22, 2015 (SPX)
When a star comes too close to a black hole, the intense gravity of the black hole results in tidal forces that can rip the star apart. In these events, called ...
Quantum coherent-like state observed in a biological protein for the first time
Oct 15, 2015 (SPX)
If you take certain atoms and make them almost as cold as they possibly can be, the atoms will fuse into a collective low-energy quantum state called a Bose-Ein...
A particle purely made of nuclear force
Oct 15, 2015 (SPX)
For decades, scientists have been looking for so-called "glueballs". Now it seems they have been found at last. A glueball is an exotic particle, made up entire...
Chalmers researchers extend the lifetime of atoms using a mirror
Oct 15, 2015 (SPX)
Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have succeeded in an experiment where they get an artificial atom to survive ten times longer than normal by po...
