As the nucleus splits, it also releases its neutrons. These neutrons bounce around at incredible speeds until some eventually ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing ...

The pulse of an atom's magnetic heart as it ticks back and forth between quantum states has been timed in a laboratory.

Physicists have unveiled a new type of time crystal that is governed by quantum behavior that conflicts with classical models ...

For the first time, scientists have directly measured “ultraweak” photon emissions from living organisms. In rats this glow fades rapidly after death. In plants it brightens under stress. In the ...

The LUX-ZEPLIN detector is breaking new ground in the hunt for dark matter, setting unprecedented limits on WIMP particles.

In a study published in Nature, a team led by Harvard and MIT scientists reported a quantum system with more than 3,000 ...

Knowable Magazine reports that neutrinos may help explain the universe's missing antimatter, shedding light on ...

QCi’s photonic chips could reduce the cost of quantum computers. IonQ’s trapped ion technology could shrink quantum processing units. Both of these companies are growing, but one is grossly overvalued ...

Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current ...
