A new kind of physics
Apr 28, 2020 (The Conversation)
Last week, Wolfram launched a new venture: the Wolfram Physics Project, an ambitious attempt to develop a new physics of our universe. The new physics, he decla...
New high-energy-density physics research provides insights about the universe
Apr 28, 2020 (SPX)
Understanding how atoms react under high-pressure conditions - a field known as high-energy-density physics (HEDP) - gives scientists valuable insights into the...
NSF Funds Astrophysicists to Develop Code for Einstein Toolkit
Apr 24, 2020 (SPX)
The Einstein Toolkit is a community-developed code for simulating the collisions of black holes and neutron stars, as well as supernovas and cosmology, and the ...
Star survives close call with a black hole
Apr 24, 2020 (SPX)
Data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and ESA's XMM-Newton uncovered the account that began with a red giant star wandering too close to a supermassive bla...
Rotating galaxies galore in the infant universe
Apr 22, 2020 (SPX)
The ALPINE program, formally named "ALMA Large Program to Investigate C+ at Early Times," uses data obtained from 70 hours of sky observations with the ALMA obs...
ESO telescope sees star dance around supermassive black hole, proves Einstein right
Apr 17, 2020 (SPX)
"Einstein's General Relativity predicts that bound orbits of one object around another are not closed, as in Newtonian Gravity, but precess forwards in the plan...
Scientists make step towards understanding the universe
Apr 17, 2020 (SPX)
Findings from the T2K experiment, a large international collaboration of more than 350 scientists including a team from Sheffield, indicate a difference between...
T2K insight into the origin of the universe
Apr 16, 2020 (SPX)
The Big Bang should have created equal amounts of matter and antimatter in the early Universe but instead the Universe is made of matter. One of the greatest ch...
Why didn't the universe annihilate itself
Apr 16, 2020 (SPX)
That's no easy feat: Neutrinos are among the most elusive subatomic particles known to science. They don't have a charge and are so lightweight - each one has a...
Where did the antimatter go
Apr 16, 2020 (SPX)
These observations may explain this mysterious antimatter disappearance. They come from the T2K experiment conducted in Japan and in which three French laborato...
Researchers develop one-way street for electrons
Apr 13, 2020 (SPX)
This method overcomes the speed limitations of prior technologies by removing interfaces that tend to slow down devices."This work is exciting because it could ...
First sighting of mysterious Majorana fermion on a common metal
Apr 13, 2020 (SPX)
In particle physics, fermions are a class of elementary particles that includes electrons, protons, neutrons, and quarks, all of which make up the building bloc...
Belle II yields first results in search of the Z' boson
Apr 09, 2020 (SPX)
Scientists at 12 German research institutions are involved in constructing and operating the detector, developing evaluation algorithms, and analyzing the data....
Rethinking cosmology: Universe expansion may not be uniform
Apr 09, 2020 (ESA)
Konstantinos Migkas, a PhD researcher in astronomy and astrophysics at the University of Bonn, Germany, and his supervisor Thomas Reiprich originally set out to...
New refrigerator super-cools molecules to nanokelvin temperatures
Apr 09, 2020 (SPX)
While scientists have super-cooled atoms, doing the same for molecules, which are more complex in their behavior and structure, has proven to be a much bigger c...
Doubts about basic assumption for the universe
Apr 09, 2020 (SPX)
Since the big bang, the universe has swollen like a freshly formed raisin roll put in a warm place to rise. Until recently, it was thought that this increase in...
Black hole bends light back on itself
Apr 09, 2020 (SPX)
Now, a new study accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal offers evidence that, in fact, not all of the light streaming from a black hole's surroun...
Researchers help expand search for new state of matter
Apr 07, 2020 (SPX)
Scientists have focused attention and research on the so-called Kitaev-type of spin liquid, named in honor of the Russian scientist, Alexei Kitaev, who first pr...
Entanglement by identity, or interaction without ever touching
Apr 06, 2020 (SPX)
"The whole is other than the sum of its parts." - Aristotle (Metaphysics, Book VIII) Quantum mechanics is currently the best and the most accurate and sophistic...
Laser technique enables powerful smaller particle accelerators
Apr 06, 2020 (SPX)
Accelerating electrons to such high energies in a laboratory setting, however, is challenging: typically, the more energetic the electrons, the bigger the parti...
