A new model based on the famous alien-hunting Drake equation suggests that some parallel universes within the hypothetical ...

Scientists are working on an accurate way of calculating the probability of finding alien life elsewhere in the universe.

The chances of intelligent life emerging in our universe—and in any hypothetical ones beyond it—can be estimated by a new ...

A novel theoretical model based on universal expansion and star formation suggests that our universe might not have the ...

Using the College Football Playoff Predictor, exclusive to CFN, we can take an expert look at the updated College Football Playoff chances for all the teams in the hunt. While the list is vast at the ...

The Infinite Monkey Theorem imagines random typing creating complex works. By adding real-world limits, scientists show it’s improbable.

The bunkbed conjecture says that the probability of finding the path on the bottom bunk is always greater than or equal to ...

"Non-trivial text generation during the lifespan of our universe is almost certainly impossible," the researchers said.

Monte Carlo simulations verify the accuracy of the theoretical results and the influence of system and channel parameters on outage probability is revealed.

Theoretical Physics explores the natural world at its most fundamental level, using mathematical theories guided by experimental investigation. For some it is the foundation for an academic career in ...

The probability density function (PDF) is a statistical expression that defines the probability that some outcome will occur. In this function, the probability is the percentage of a dataset's ...
