High-precision measurements from the KATRIN experiment strongly limit the existence of light sterile neutrinos and narrow the search for new physics. Neutrinos are extremely difficult to detect, yet ...
History shows we often dismiss what we don’t yet understand. Here’s why stigmatizing today’s uncomfortable questions may be holding humanity back.
Scientists using the James Webb telescope observed a distant exoplanet with an atmosphere of soot and diamonds, challenging all explanations.
A strange flash in a distant galaxy first looked like a familiar kind of stellar wreckage, the radioactive afterglow of ...
The shape of the universe is not something we often think about. My colleagues and I have published a new study that suggests ...
By compressing and expanding carbon dioxide, this unusual battery solves one of renewable energy’s toughest reliability ...
Black holes are among the most extreme objects in the universe, and now scientists can model them more accurately than ever ...
Mysterious ‘little red dots’ seen by the James Webb Space Telescope can be explained by a new kind of black hole enshrouded ...
Astronomers have discovered a carbon-rich exoplanet with a bizarre atmosphere and shape, orbiting a neutron star under extreme conditions that challenge current models of planetary formation. Scientis ...
“This system is unique because we are able to view the planet illuminated by its host star, but not see the host star at all, ...
"The sheer amount of radiated energy from these bursts is so large that you can't power them with a core collapse stellar ...
Pulsars emit a lot of radiation, in particular high-energy gamma-rays and radio waves pulses. That light is invisible to JWST ...
