Scientists propose five Venus-like planets for James Webb Space Telescope to target

Scientists propose using James Webb to look at five planets in the Venus Zone, a search that could reveal valuable insights into Earth’s future.

Yale scientists prove a key theory of quantum physics

Scientists have for the first time, using a process known as quantum error correction, substantially extended the lifetime of a quantum bit.

Scientists use lasers to recreate twisted superconducting material

Scientists have created a way to use lasers to “simulate” a material that physicists have been drooling over for its potential technological applications for years.

Scientists open door to manipulating ‘quantum light’

Scientists have demonstrated the ability to manipulate and identify small numbers of interacting photons – packets of light energy – with high correlation.

Scientists detect neutrinos made by particle collider for first time

In a scientific first, a team led by physicists at the University of California, Irvine has detected neutrinos created by a particle collider.

Physics theory could be slam dunk for basketball coaches

A physics theory that’s proven useful to predict the crowd behavior of molecules and fruit flies also seems to work in a very different context – a basketball court.

This special atom could help search for Universe’s building blocks

An unusual form of caesium atom is helping a University of Queensland-led research team unmask unknown particles that make up the Universe. Dr Jacinda Ginges,...

Scientists discover an unusual planetary system that challenges current theories

Scientists discover an unusual planetary system in which a large gas giant planet orbits a small red dwarf star called TOI-5205.

Scientists find link between black holes and dark energy

Researchers have uncovered the first evidence of “cosmological coupling”—a newly predicted phenomenon in Einstein’s theory of gravity, possible only when black holes are placed inside an evolving universe.

How do small PAH molecules survive in space

A new study provides an answer to the question: How do small PAH molecules survive in space?
