Proton collisions at the LHC appear wildly chaotic, but new data reveal a surprising underlying order. The findings confirm that a basic rule of quantum mechanics holds true even in extreme particle ...

For many of us, advanced physics can be tough to understand to begin with, which makes it all the more impressive whenever someone earns a Nobel Prize for advancing the field even further. The latest ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

With the help of a new experiment, researchers at Linköping University, among others, have succeeded in confirming a ten-year-old theoretical study, which connects one of the most fundamental aspects ...

A team of physicists affiliated with multiple institutions in China has measured a pulse of light in 37 dimensions. In their paper published in Science Advances, the group explains that their ...

A new study enhances hydrogen molecule predictions, achieving unprecedented precision in testing fundamental physics and ...

In classical physics, anything driven hard enough will eventually heat up, lose coherence, and settle into disorder. A new ...

The first time I went under the knife, I remember the anesthesiologist asking me to count backward. “Ten, nine, eight…” and then it all went black. The next thing I knew, three hours had passed, yet ...

Physicists have long treated space and time as the stage on which quantum particles perform, not as actors in the drama ...

An experiment outlined by a UCL-led team could test whether relatively large masses have a quantum nature, resolving the question of whether quantum mechanical description works at a much larger scale ...
