80-year-old static electricity enigma is finally resolved
In the course of human history, contact electrification (CE) served as the first and only source of electricity up to around the 18th century; nevertheless…
What exactly is quantum entanglement? Einstein's 'spooky activity at a distance' is explained scientifically by a physicist
In its most basic form, quantum entanglement means that features of one particle in an entangled pair are dependent on aspects of the other particle…
Three Quantum scientists share the Nobel Prize in Physics
Three scientists shared this year's Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for demonstrating that tiny particles can maintain a connection with each other even…
The stunning room-temperature superconductor claim has been withdrawn
A study that received a lot of attention and in which researchers claimed to have seen the first actual room-temperature superconductor has since been discredited.
Physicists provide explanation for a central puzzle in quantum physics
An multinational team of physicists, including the University of Augsburg, has confirmed a key theoretical prediction in quantum physics for the first time.
Quantum gravity's dark matter
Since the 1930s, researchers have discovered evidence suggesting the Universe’s mass is composed of approximately 85% of a perplexing and yet unexplained kind…
These physicists prefer a new theory of gravity to the possibility of dark matter
Dark matter was postulated to explain why stars at the galaxy's edge moved far faster than Newton had expected.
Scientists discover new "exotic" quark configurations
Quarks, the tiniest particles known to humanity, have been identified in new groupings by scientists.
A new study reveals that protons naturally contain charm quarks
The subatomic particles are composed of three lighter particles known as quarks: two up quarks and one down quark.
Why are scientists searching outside the Standard Model of particle physics?
Standard Model is a significant particle physics hypothesis that has endured the test of time. But gravitational gaps exist in the theory.
Scientists question claims of detecting 'photon rings' around black holes
Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) researchers produced the first ever image of a black hole in 2019, and it showed a donut-shaped light from hot matter spinning…

A group of scientists claims that BAFFLING radio waves emerging from a distant galaxy cluster are unlike anything ever witnessed - and appear to defy known…
Rare W boson trios discovered by physicists at the Large Hadron Collider
In most cases, the letters "www" are followed by a "dot," however in this experiment, that is not the case.
The new phase of matter created by physicists behaves as if it has two time dimensions
By shining a laser pulse sequence inspired by the Fibonacci sequence at atoms inside a quantum computer, physicists have created a remarkable…
Supercritical matter is the subject of two recent scientific discoveries
Supercritical matter, or matter above the critical point, was previously thought of as a single state of matter between liquid and gas with no qualitative…
Georgia Tech scientists defy standard physics laws
When people, animals, and machines move around the world, they always push up against something, whether it’s the ground, air, or water.
