Spaceflight takes a physical toll on astronauts, causing muscles to atrophy, bones to thin and bodily fluids to shift.

Scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder may have solved a pressing mystery about the universe's gravitational wave ...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum gravity and quantum information theory. Based at Canada’s Perimeter Institute ...

In October 1984 I arrived at Oxford University, trailing a large steamer trunk containing a couple of changes of clothing and about five dozen textbooks. I had a freshly minted bachelor’s degree in ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further. Inspired by kirigami, a type of Japanese paper art, researchers have created a new ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further. Quantum timekeeping comes with the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, a new study ...

Google’s proposal to explore space-based AI infrastructure raises fundamental questions about energy, physics and feasibility – and whether Earth has really run out of options. When you purchase ...

Plasma physics is the study of a state of matter comprising charged particles. Plasmas are usually created by heating a gas until the electrons become detached from their parent atom or molecule. This ...

The Center for Device Thermography and Reliability (CDTR), led by Professor Martin Kuball, is a world-leading research center focusing on developing next generation semiconductor electronic devices ...

Scientists are exploring quantum materials to enable ultra-fast computing and lossless electricity, but doing so requires understanding atomic-scale effects that are still largely mysterious. A new ...
