Using the wide-field survey capabilities of the Subaru Telescope, astronomers discovered active supermassive black holes, or quasars, in the distant universe and then studied them with the James Webb ...

The first law of thermodynamics is one of the bedrock laws of physics. Even if you’re not gung-ho for physics research, you ...

Faint hydrogen signals from the cosmic Dark Ages may soon help determine the mass of dark matter particles. Simulations suggest future Moon-based observatories could distinguish between warm and cold ...

Webb telescope found 12 black holes from 12.9B years ago, suggesting supermassive black holes shaped the growth of the ...

An international research collaboration has used advanced computer simulations to investigate how faint radio signals from ...

OpenAI researchers reveal how their experimental model, devoid of any external aids, powered through hours-long proofs to ...

Knot theory is a branch of topology that has surprisingly practical applications, such as understanding how proteins coil DNA and how molecular structures remain stable. The theory’s central question: ...

Recent progress on both analog and digital simulations of quantum fields foreshadows a future in which quantum computers ...

Long before galaxies sparkled in the sky or stars took shape, invisible forces stirred in the early Universe. One of those ...

A scientist proposes a new law of physics suggesting the universe may be a digital simulation, linking physics, biology, and ...

Asking what existed before the Big Bang is often dismissed as meaningless, since traditional physics breaks down when pushed ...

The Busy Beaver Challenge, a notoriously difficult question in theoretical computer science, is now producing answers so ...
