With support from the W. M. Keck Foundation, a Stevens–Yale collaboration is now transforming graviton detection from a ...

Our best models of the cosmos don't add up — but that could change if the universe is actually made of a viscous 'fluid,' a ...

In this video, we derive the catenary curve using physics and calculus, explaining how a hanging cable reaches equilibrium under gravity. Step-by-step reasoning connects forces, differential equations ...

Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human ...

The standard explanation has been dark energy, an invisible force added into the equations to make the math work. But now, an ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

For more than a century, scientists have wondered why physical structures like blood vessels, neurons, tree branches, and ...

The particle in question, known as a sterile neutrino, was supposed to only interact with gravity and have zero interactions ...

The rapid acceleration of the universe’s expansion continues to challenge our understanding of fundamental physics. Why the ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

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