String theory may offer an alternative to dark energy
A new study evaluates gravity using string theory, a promising candidate for describing particle interactions at their most fundamental level.
Could black holes be dark energy?
Astronomers looking at how black holes grow over time may have found the answer to one of the biggest problems in cosmology.
How does classical physics arise from quantum mechanics?
Emergence of classicality states that a quantum description of a large object must be the same as its classical description, but this isn’t always so…
An important step toward the theory of superconductivity
Understanding room temperature superconductivity one step closer thanks to researchers looking at the effects of pressure.
Entangling particles helps improve the accuracy of quantum measurements
Using 19 different quantum computers, scientists demonstrate how entangled particles break limitations in accuracy on the sub-atomic scale.
Searching for dark matter in our solar system
Sending atomic and nuclear clocks into the inner reaches of our solar system could help scientists find proof of elusive dark matter.
Delving into the structures of protons using heavy quarks
Experiments performed using CERN’s the Large Hadron Collider provide insights into the particles that make up protons and their interactions.
How accurate are our models of rotating neutron stars?
Comparing algorithms used to model spinning neutron stars, scientists hope to better understand the physics of the elementary particles that make them up.
Detecting ultralight dark matter particles using supermassive black holes
Is it time to start looking for alternatives to WIMPs?
