New light on supermassive black holes
Oct 22, 2013 (SPX)
Swinburne University of Technology scientists are part of an international team that has used observations of super-dense stars known as pulsars to probe the Un...
Celebrating the legacy of ESA's Planck mission
Oct 22, 2013 (ESA)
From the tiniest fraction of a second after the Big Bang to the evolution of stars and galaxies over 13.8 billion years, ESA's Planck space telescope has provid...
Fat Black Holes Grown up in Cities: Observational result using Virtual Observatory
Oct 22, 2013 (SPX)
A research team, led by reseacher at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ), discovered that the more massive black holes tend to be located in g...
ALMA probes mysteries of jets from giant black holes
Oct 21, 2013 (SPX)
There are supermassive black holes -- with masses up to several billion solar masses -- at the hearts of almost all galaxies in the Universe, including our own ...
Quantum particles find safety in numbers
Oct 18, 2013 (SPX)
LMU researchers have uncovered a novel effect that, in principle, offers a means of stabilizing quantum systems against decoherence. The discovery could represe...
Scientists prove Heisenberg's intuition correct
Oct 18, 2013 (SPX)
An international team of scientists has provided proof of a key feature of quantum physics - Heisenberg's error-disturbance relation - more than 80 years after ...
Gravitational waves help understand black-hole weight gain
Oct 18, 2013 (SPX)
Supermassive black holes: every large galaxy's got one. But here's a real conundrum: how did they grow so big? A paper in the latest issue of Science pits the f...
Evidence for a new nuclear 'magic number'
Oct 10, 2013 (SPX)
Researchers have come one step closer to understanding unstable atomic nuclei. A team of researchers from RIKEN, the University of Tokyo and other institutions ...
Englert And Higgs Awarded Nobel Prize In Physics For 2013
Oct 08, 2013 (SPX)
Francois Englert and Peter W. Higgs are jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2013 for the theory of how particles acquire mass. In 1964, they proposed the...
Louisiana Tech physicists aid in new findings of international research team
Oct 08, 2013 (SPX)
Physics faculty from Louisiana Tech University are part of an international team of researchers which has reported first results for the proton's weak charge ba...
European 'big bang' space telescope to be switched off
Oct 08, 2013 (UPI)
The process of disposing of a space telescope that mapped the "oldest light" in the universe has begun, its European controllers say. The European Space Agency'...
Recent Study Reduces Casimir Force to Lowest Recorded Level
Oct 08, 2013 (SPX)
A research team that includes a physics professor at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) has recorded a drastically reduced measurement of...
Do black holes have hair
Oct 07, 2013 (SPX)
A black hole. A simple and clear concept, at least according to the hypothesis by Roy Kerr, who in 1963 proposed a "clean" black hole model, which is the curren...
Herschel throws new light on oldest cosmic light
Oct 04, 2013 (SPX)
Cosmologists have achieved a first detection of a long-sought component in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). This component, known as B-mode polarisation, ...
3-D models of electrical streamers
Oct 01, 2013 (SPX)
Streamers may be great for decorating a child's party, but in dielectrics, they are the primary origin of electric breakdown. They can cause catastrophic damage...
Study of big-bang radiation may yield clues to early universe
Oct 01, 2013 (UPI)
Telescopes on Earth and in space have detected a subtle twist in the radiation from the big bang and the first moments of the universe, astronomers say. Observe...
Experiment offers a cheaper approach to particle acceleration
Sep 27, 2013 (UPI)
A smaller and relatively less expensive approach to particle acceleration was a step closer, results of an experiment conducted by U.S. researchers indicated. R...
Quantum entanglement only dependent upon area
Sep 25, 2013 (SPX)
Two researchers at UCL Computer Science and the University of Gdansk present a new method for determining the amount of entanglement - a quantum phenomenon conn...
