The new work promises to give researchers a better grip on the core mystery of quantum mechanics.
Priyamvada Natarajan has pioneered the mapping and modeling of the universe’s invisible contents, especially dark matter and supermassive black holes.
Perfect black holes are versatile mathematical tools. Just don’t mistake them for the real thing.
Turbulence is everywhere, yet it is one of the most difficult concepts for physicists to understand.
People have known about magnets since ancient times, but the physics of ferromagnetism remains a mystery. Now a familiar puzzle is getting physicists closer to the answer.
An analysis of lunar craters has found that we’ve been living in a relatively violent period in cosmic history.
Subatomic particles called muons are thought to have streamed through the atmosphere and irradiated megafauna like the monster shark megalodon.
Astronomers couldn’t find enough satellite galaxies orbiting the Milky Way. Now they have the opposite problem.
Dark matter may occasionally interact with minerals in the earth, leaving telltale tracks that physicists hope to decipher.
