Equations are the bedrock of science, expressing how numbers or physical properties relate at a fundamental level. Without equations, most of our technology would never have been invented. We may have ...

In this video, we explore five key areas of physics: **Classical Mechanics:** Newton’s second law (F = ma) explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law of universal ...

One of the greatest mysteries in physics could be solved by a mattress-like axion field that permeates space and time. Three physicists who have been collaborating in the San Francisco Bay Area over ...

You may think of physics as a way to explain the behaviors of things like black holes, colliding particles, falling apples, and quantum computers. But a small group physicists today is working on a ...

The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study ...

Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? A new paper without peer review says physics equations follow a formula of their own.

Theoretical physicists have proposed a potential solution to one of the most puzzling problems in modern physics: the black ...

shred (ʃrɛd), verb (intransitive, slang): to play an electric guitar using sets of notes in a way that produces a sound that is distorted (i.e. strange and sometimes unpleasant) – a rather dubious ...

Quantum mechanics is concerned with the behavior of the tiniest of particles, and usually the mathematics behind it is relegated to this tiny realm. Now, a researcher from the California Institute of ...

Quantum physics didn’t set out to explain the mind. It set out to explain matter. And yet, the deeper scientists went into ...
