Physicists have finally watched positronium, a short‑lived atom made of an electron and its antimatter twin, behave like a rippling quantum wave instead of a tiny billiard ball. In a set of ...
We have known for several decades that the universe is expanding. Scientists use multiple techniques to measure the present-day expansion rate of the universe, known as the Hubble constant. These ...
Physicists at NYU have discovered a new type of time crystal—an exotic state of matter whose particles rhythmically “tick” while levitating on sound waves.
Breaking waves shape our coastlines, sink cruise ships and fishing vessels and play a crucial role in climate systems. Yet, despite decades of research, scientists have struggled to fully explain why ...
A machine to send objects into the past is not the cleanest modern evidence with regard to the physical reality of time travel. It is a laboratory illusion which causes waves to act as though part of ...
