A theory holds that dark matter could be involved in a mirror universe and that runs backwards before the Big Bang.

A recent resurgence of interest in a bold cosmological theory has reignited debate about the nature of dark matter, the Big ...

A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

Scientists using Google’s quantum processor have taken a major step toward unraveling the deepest mysteries of the universe. By simulating fundamental interactions described by gauge theories, the ...

Researchers used Google’s quantum processor to simulate fundamental physics, offering a new way to study the universe’s basic forces and particles. The fundamental forces that shape our universe are ...

For centuries, science has pushed the boundaries of our understanding, from exploring vast galaxies to diving into the ...

Might two bent crystals pave the way to finding new physics? The Standard Model of particle physics describes our world at its smallest scales exceptionally well. However, it leaves some important ...

But this picture of the universe is wrong...quantum physics tells us so. In the 1920’s, researchers thought that emptiness — an absence of stuff — is what quantum mechanics was talking about.

Researchers from around the world have sought to answer important questions about the most basic laws of physics that govern our universe. Their experiment, the Majorana Demonstrator, has helped ...

“New physics is about searching for unknown physical phenomena not known from the current perception of the universe. Such phenomena are inherently very difficult to detect,” explains PhD ...

This week, this enormous scientific facility, ten years in the making, will begin its hunt for the most elusive particles in ...

IRA FLATOW, host: This year's Nobel Prize in Physics has just been awarded to three American astronomers for their unexpected discovery that the universe is expanding at an accelerating rate.
