Scientists are largely clueless about the origins of static electricity. A quirky group of researchers aims to change that.

This postdoctoral researcher uses theoretical models to study nanoscale forces and guide the development of future nanodevices and quantum technologies.

It’s long been a mystery why there are 3 generations of quarks and leptons: three sets of particles, apparently identical except for how they interact with the Higgs boson. It would be nice if there ...

New classical simulation technique makes it practical to benchmark large-scale logical magic-state preparation protocols ...

Quantum entanglement is key to solving a 250-year-old mathematical puzzle – and the discovery could ultimately help build quantum computers that are more resilient to errors. In the 1700s, according ...

Elon Musk's Grok AI was responsible for 87% of the synthetic files linked to documented deepfake attacks in the first half of 2026, according to the H1 2026 Deepfake Threat Report published August 12 ...

The HARVEY platform leverages supercomputing, physics-based simulations, and wearable device data to monitor real-time ...

For the first time in the history of optical atomic clocks, a government agency is not funding a better demonstration — it is funding a manufacturing line. DARPA awarded IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) a $28 ...

For generations of Indian students preparing for the JEE and NEET examinations, the journey towards success has often begun with a familiar name on a book cover: Concepts of Physics.Long before online ...

Tangent accepted: The modern supply chain is one of the most powerful things in the world (basically allowing all the nice things like us not living in thatched huts and eating gruel), and as such, ...

Physicists have debated which way a submerged sprinkler sucking in water would spin. Careful experiments provide an answer. By Kenneth Chang Scientists say they have solved in detail what may be the ...
