A pioneering algorithm has been put into operation at the Large Hadron Collider by a group of scientists from Staffordshire University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and CERN.
It is necessary for fusion power generation that the high-energy particles—produced by a fusion reaction in hot plasma—heat themselves to withstand more fusion reactions. Whether waves generated by the high-energy particles could heat it is the basis to this self-heating of the plasma.
A Curtin-led research team has found asteroid impacts on the Moon millions of years ago coincided precisely with some of the largest meteorite impacts on Earth, such as the one that wiped out the dinosaurs.
Using artificial intelligence, physicists have compressed a daunting quantum problem that until now required 100,000 equations into a bite-size task of as few as four equations - all without sacrificing accuracy.
Physicists at UC Santa Barbara and the University of Maryland, and also at the University of Washington have found an answer to the longstanding physics question: How do interparticle interactions affect dynamical localization.
Theorists at the University of Pittsburgh and Swansea University have shown that recent experimental results from the CERN collider give strong evidence for a new form of matter.
The world’s first full-scale planetary defence test – NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission – is designed to strike an asteroid and adjust its course.
Researchers have witnessed tetraneutrons in experimental conditions.
Researchers have discovered that major parts of the Milky Way’s outer disk vibrate, which has led to information about Sagittarius’ past and orbit around the galaxy.
Two UK-based companies are designing missions to clear hazardous space junk alongside the launch of a new programme to back cutting-edge space technology, the UK Space Agency has announced.
