In 1999, Belgian physicist Chris Van Den Broeck implemented a minor alteration to Alcubierre’s concept by shrinking the ...

Scientists say microscopic wormholes could explain discrepancies in cosmological constants and affect our understanding of ...

"Present" in time is almost the same thing as "present" in space. It might be silly to try to extrapolate culture from elementary physics, but time moves faster in the mountains than at sea level.

The exponential energy demand of AI is forcing a confrontation between the digital economy and the linear constraints of the physical world, relying heavily on baseload fossil fuels and triggering new ...

Thermodynamics was built to describe steam engines and stars, yet the same equations now sit at the heart of quantum ...

The Nuclear Furnace at the Sun's Heart The temperature in the Sun's core is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million ...

To identify and evaluate candidate materials, process engineers must analyze an enormous amount of data. Bulk properties like ...

The authors have performed a potentially valuable new kind of analysis in connectomics, mapping to an interesting developmental problem of synaptic input to sensory neurons. While the analysis itself ...

New multiscale simulations help crack long-standing mysteries behind the enormous radio arcs generated when galaxy clusters ...

A Star Trek–inspired idea by Miguel Alcubierre kicked off decades of theory and experiments as scientists pursue plausible ...

This study investigates the folding and unfolding behavior of the doubly knotted protein TrmD-Tm1570, providing insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying protein knotting. The findings reveal ...
