Physicists at the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope Initiative, KM3NeT, built a cathedral of glass spheres that listens for ...

Newton’s experiment remains almost insultingly simple. Sunlight, a darkened room, a glass prism. The conclusion was unavoidable. Colour belonged to light itself. The prism merely made it visible.

An astronaut on the ISS photographed a "lunar halo" over the Indian Ocean, revealing ice and rare optical phenomena from ...

"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

A new theoretical study suggests fusion reactors could do more than generate energy, they might also produce particles linked to dark matter. Researchers at the University of Cincinnati say they have ...

Scientists have discovered a giant cosmic filament where galaxies spin in sync with the structure that holds them together.

Using Georgia State’s CHARA Array, an international team of scientists has uncovered unexpected complexity in how stars ...

Classical Mechanics:** Newton’s second law (F = ma) explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law ...

A new theory of "dark photons" attempted to explain a centuries-old experiment in a new way this year, in an effort to change ...

More than 200 years ago, Count Rumford showed that heat isn’t a mysterious substance but something you can generate endlessly ...

From frozen bonfires to quantum physics, why light still matters to our hopes, our science and our long Alaska winters.

Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the Abdus Salam International ...
