That's what two physicists at Brown University in Providence, in the US state of Rhode Island, wanted to find out. Thomas Dutta, a PhD candidate, recalled how his grandmother struggled with getting ...

Large language models lack grounding in physical causality — a gap world models are designed to fill. Here's how three distinct architectural approaches (JEPA, Gaussian splats, and end-to-end ...

Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that ...

MIT physicists have built a powerful new microscope that uses terahertz light to uncover hidden quantum motions inside superconductors. By compressing this normally unwieldy light into a tiny region, ...

After years of creating highly specialized software, researchers used supercomputer clusters to finally solve the "100,000-body problem.

Anyone with a chronic illness understands the struggle of living with a disease that is deeply unpredictable. Many such ...

Scientists worldwide respond to the publication of the three-volume monograph “Quantum Model of the Universe” #Physics ...

A new AI framework called THOR is transforming how scientists calculate the behavior of atoms inside materials. Instead of relying on slow simulations that take weeks of supercomputer time, the system ...

New research from the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) shows why widely used algorithms for measuring economic complexity produce trustworthy results and how these tools may benefit diverse areas such as ...

A new three-volume study explores how quantum physics, gravitation and cosmology may be understood within a unified ...

A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.

The team’s theoretical calculations were largely supported by the results, and showed it’s all about the viscosity. Water reached the 90 percent mark in only a few seconds. Meanwhile, cold maple syrup ...
