Physicists Explore the Link Between Photon Mass and Large-Scale Astrophysical Phenomena

It is perplexing to think about how stars in galaxies, such as the Milky Way, rotate. The orbital speeds of stars are supposed to decrease as the distance from the galaxy center increases; however, in reality, the rotational speeds of stars in the middle and outer regions of galaxies are the same.

Scientists Demonstrate How Light Pulses Can be Used to Improve Superconductivity

Mott insulators are odd materials. They should conduct electricity under normal electron band theory; however, they do not do so because of the interactions among their electrons.

Researchers for the First Time Witness the Quantum Mechanical Interference of Quasiparticles

Not all qubits—the units used to encode data in quantum computing—are produced equal. Some scientists assume that topological qubits, which are more robust and less prone to environmental noise when compared to other types, may be the best medium to advance quantum computing.
