Dark energy might be getting weaker. Scientists are wondering if interactions with dark matter in a “dark dimension” may be responsible.

An underground detector recorded a strange interaction pointing to a particle with some properties that signify dark matter. The detection is small but promising.

Common sense is of no help in studying reality at the atomic scale.

The discovery redefines how large atoms need to be to produce the extreme state of matter found in the early universe.

How a tiny little electronic switch sparked the computer revolution.

Star, moving at 8% the speed of light, may let us measure the black hole's rotation.

How the joule thief circuit “steals” energy from seemingly depleted power cells.

Observatories have been built in mines, deep under the Antarctic ice sheet, and elsewhere in an effort to detect the fleeting particles.

“It’s the strongest evidence yet that particles dominated by a glueball component can exist in nature.”

We expected them to be there, but they had previously been too small to see.

Zulfi Alam thinks his team doesn’t need to “prove” they engineered a new state of matter in their bid to reinvent computing. Science would disagree.

Company noted for building quantum annealers now also making gate-based hardware.

From how galaxies form to the beginnings of the universe, the images from the space telescope are giving cosmologists new data to explore—and theories to build out.

Companies are making sure we have a surplus of options for building qubits.

Black holes eject powerful energy jets that blow away the surrounding gas to great distances. So how can they continue to grow?

Never mind the “heat death of the universe.” Entropy is just a bridge between two levels of reality.

A mirror that moves mid-photon could release a shower of new photons.

New study confirms 2024 "momentum flux theory" on how angular momentum of water flows drives rotation.

It's unclear how the planet avoided its star's bloated red giant stage.

Reinforcement learning uses error information to adjust control algorithms.
