Field: Physics

By using quantum physics to measure magnetic fields, researchers are pushing closer to measuring the brain in ways we couldn't before.

We know that fusion works – it is the process that powers the Sun, providing heat and light to the Earth. But can we do it ourselves?

“When I saw the data, I didn’t believe the analysis...This is the brightest Cow supernova seen to date."

Scientists used to think the universe began from a singularity. Nearly 100 years later, we're not so sure.

Physicists claim to have generated matter from pure light particles for the first time — a spectacular display of Einstein's most famous equation.

The first direct observation of light from behind a supermassive black hole confirms a prediction in Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

NASA’s new balloon-borne telescope could let astronomers study distant objects with the latest tech at a fraction of the cost of Hubble.

The muon, a fundamental particle nicknamed the “fat electron,” has physicists questioning the standard model of particle physics.

A quantum teleportation breakthrough at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory puts us one step closer to a super-fast, super-secure quantum internet.

Generative adversarial networks are the scary AI producing deepfakes. But they have other uses too, and physicists are starting to harness their power.

MIT researchers have created a new kind of atomic clock that exploits quantum entanglement to keep time more precisely.
