Physicists have built a quantum gas that behaves nothing like the substances we are used to, and that is exactly why it is ...

A new AI developed at Duke University can uncover simple, readable rules behind extremely complex systems. It studies how ...

The rules governing how matter behaves seem grounded enough, even some of these laws can get very complicated, very quickly. For example, high temperature usually melts things whereas high pressure ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...

Let’s face it, bending the rules is fun, even as adults. But the great thing about being a scientist is that you literally get paid to bend the rules of actual science, especially physics, which has a ...

A groundbreaking new material bends the rules of physics by combining surprising strength with impressive stretch. Scientists have long faced a trade-off in materials science: the stiffer something is ...

A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...

Sacramento State Physics students will conduct research with scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in a new collaboration funded by the federal Department of Energy. Four Sac State ...

The dominant view in physics is simple: the laws of nature are fixed. Gravity pulls as it always has; quantum probabilities collapse with the same stubborn indifference today as billions of years ago.

A study has found that students are more engaged in laboratory courses that are designed to emphasize and teach experimentation skills (Courtesy:iStock/AlexPotemkin ...
