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

When black holes collide, the impact radiates into space like the sound of a bell in the form of gravitational waves. But ...

Electrical sparks inside Martian dust devils have been detected for the first time, reshaping how scientists understand the ...

Researchers have identified a distinctive ultraviolet signature of water in the interstellar comet known as 3I/ATLAS.

The text is now best known for introducing “Pascal’s Law” or “Principle,” that any change of pressure in an enclosed incompressible fluid (like water) is transmitted equally to all points within the ...

Tiny waves, big implications: Electron microscope image of the superfluid wave tank used in the experiments (blue) coupled to an optical fibre which brings laser light in and out of the device. The ...

The discovery of gravitational waves in 2015 marked a turning point in our understanding of the universe. But detecting these faint signals was only the beginning. The real challenge lies in ...

We’ve figured out how to harness renewable energy from many natural systems, like solar, wind, and geothermal power. But what about the ocean’s waves? It might seem like converting wave power into ...

Researchers from Australia’s University of Queensland have made a microscopic “ocean” on a silicon chip to miniaturise the study of wave dynamics. The device, made at UQ’s School of Mathematics and ...

More than 420 anti-science bills attacking longstanding public health protections – vaccines, milk safety and fluoride – have been introduced in statehouses across the U.S. this year, part of an ...

When I began my master’s program in cognitive science, an electrical engineering professor told us—rather arrogantly—that the soul is nothing but neurons firing. “You’re deluded if you think otherwise ...

UW-Milwaukee physics and astronomy assistant professor Lia Medeiros explains gravitational waves and the role UWM played in discovering them. It’s been just over a decade since physicists first ...
