Like physics, math has its own set of “fundamental particles”—the prime numbers, which can’t be broken down into smaller ...

A University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa student-led team has developed a new algorithm to help scientists determine direction in complex two-dimensional (2D) data, with potential applications ranging from ...

In chemistry, molecules with a "flat" geometry are often stable enough to support a wide range of reactions. But in the quantum world, that's not technically true.

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Since ancient Greece, researchers have tried to isolate special rational points on curves. Now they have the first ever formula that applies uniformly to all curves ...

A groundbreaking computational physics framework has demonstrated that the three-dimensional fabric of the universe can be generated from scratch using a simple algorithm with exactly zero free ...

How much does a quantum measurement disturb what comes next? A team at TU Wien has discovered a surprisingly simple formula that sets a fundamental limit on the trade-off between measurement ...

One of the most striking features of quantum physics is that certain properties cannot be measured at the same time. Every measurement may inevitably ...

Last year, our most detailed map of the universe yet suggested our understanding of dark energy has been wrong for decades. The shock result is reigniting the search for a better cosmic story ...

New simulations from Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory suggest that deliberately engineering plasma rotation inside tokamak fusion reactors could dramatically reduce the heat loads that destroy ...
