Researchers at TU Wien have developed a one-dimensional “quantum wire” using a gas of ultracold atoms. In this system, both ...

It took 125 years, but in 2025 a team of mathematicians discovered the solution to a long-puzzling problem about the ...

Complex fluids, such as polymer melts and concentrated suspensions, are foundational materials for industrial products, ...

A new technique allows complex interactions in materials to be simulated using Monte Carlo simulations thousands of times ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of ...

Even with quantum mechanics and relativity, physics can’t explain everything. Three problems — quantum gravity, dark matter, and turbulent flow — remain unsolved despite decades of research. Each one ...

Google will deprecate practice problem structured data in January and clarifies Dataset markup is only for Dataset Search. Book actions remain supported. Practice problem markup is being deprecated ...

Daniel Whiteson and Andy Warner’s upcoming book is a philosophical exploration of the humanity behind our desire to find aliens. Reading time 6 minutes At Gizmodo, we love a good story about ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the turn of the 20th century, the renowned mathematician David Hilbert had a grand ambition to bring a more rigorous, mathematical ...

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and solve the long-standing polaron problem, unlocking deeper understanding of ...

Going out to your car and finding a leak can make you worry about making it out of the driveway, let alone to the nearest auto repair shop. Depending on the severity of the leak, you may need to tow ...
