Getting One Step Closer to Quantum Theory of Gravity by Using Hamilton-Jacobi Techniques

In Einstein's theory of general relativity, gravity arises when a massive object distorts the fabric of spacetime the way a ball sinks into a piece of stretched cloth.

Fermilab Announces First Successful Demonstration of New Particle Beam Technique

Physicists love to smash particles together and study the resulting chaos. Therein lies the discovery of new particles and strange physics, generated for tiny fractions of a second and recr"eating conditions often not seen in our universe for billions of years.

One More Clue to the Moon’s Origin

Researchers from ETH Zurich discover the first definitive proof that the Moon inherited indigenous noble gases from the Earth’s mantle. The discovery represents a significant piece of the puzzle towards understanding how the Moon and, potentially, the Earth and other celestial bodies were formed.

NOIRLab Reveals Stunning Images of Merging Spiral Galaxies

One of the twin telescopes of the International Gemini Observatory, Gemini North, which is run by the NOIRLab of the NSF, has discovered the first signs of a cosmic collision that is taking place around 60 million light-years away in the direction of the constellation Virgo.

Study Highlights One Way that Cyclic or “Bouncing” Cosmologies Fall Flat

In trying to understand the nature of the cosmos, some theorists propose that the universe expands and contracts in endless cycles.

Researchers Use Simulations to Reveal What Determines the Masses of Stars

STARFORGE, a project creating the most accurate, highest-resolution 3D simulations of star formation until today, was launched last year by a team of astrophysicists that include key participants from Northwestern University.

Researchers Experimentally Extract the Strength of the Strong Force

Much ado was made about the Higgs boson when this elusive particle was discovered in 2012. Though it was touted as giving ordinary matter mass, interactions with the Higgs field only generate about 1 percent of ordinary mass.

New Research Project Aims to Help Quantum Computer Scientists Write Better Programs

While quantum computers could someday revolutionize technology, a single slip of an atom can cause a malfunction. Scientists around the world are figuring out what causes these errors, and it turns out sometimes they stem from the way code in a program is arranged.
