The Tragedy of Science and a Way Out

By David Paul Gontar

Real-Life Schrödinger’s Cats Probe the Boundary of the Quantum World

By Philip Ball

Recent experiments have put relatively large objects into quantum states, illuminating the processes by which the ordinary world emerges out of the quantum one.

The Cosmic Web

By Becky Ferreira

Galaxies can move with each other across huge distances, and against the predictions of basic cosmological models.

Quantum physics study suggests objective reality doesn’t exist

By Alessandro Fedrizzi and Massimiliano Proietti

Observers are powerful players in the quantum world.

What is Quantum Cognition?

By Nicoletta Lanese

Physics theory could predict human behavior

Quantum Darwinism: Moving From the Quantum to the Classical World

By Shawn Radcliffe

The “fittest” quantum properties make the most copies of themselves.

A Math Limerick

Today we let go and be nerds...

Dark Energy: Why Tinker with Gravity?

By Ethan Siegel

Of the 2 trillion galaxies contained within our observable Universe, 94% are already forever beyond our reach

Astronomers Spot 'Missing Link' Black Hole

By Reuters

Scientists have detected a mid-size black hole - considered the "missing link" in the understanding of these celestial brutes

The Universe Is Expanding Faster Than Expected

By Shawn Radcliffe

Discrepancies in measures of expansion may point to new physics

Physics is Pointing Inexorably to Mind

So-called “information realism” has some surprising implications

Landmark Computer Science Proof Cascades Through Physics and Math

By Kevin Hartnett

A new proof in computer science also has implications for researchers in quantum mechanics and pure mathematics

Adventures in Frequency

By Peta Morton

Multi-dimensional Cymatics with David Schiermeyer

Time Flow and Infinite Precision Numbers

By Natalie Wolchover

The laws of physics imply that the passage of time is an illusion. To avoid this conclusion, we might have to rethink the reality of infinitely precise numbers.

What are intermediate-mass black holes?

By Jake Parks

We've detected puny, stellar-mass black holes. And we've detected giant, supermassive black holes. But what about those in the middle?

How Far is the Edge of the Universe?

By Ethan Siegel

If you were to go as far out into space as you can imagine, what would you encounter?

Quantum Gravity Could Reverse Cause and Effect

By Stephanie Pappas

Any theory of quantum gravity is going to have to grapple with some weird time stuff.

No Dark Energy?

By Yonsei University

New evidence shows that the key assumption made in the discovery of dark energy is in error

Even Large Molecules Can Behave Like Waves

By Shawn Radcliffe

You wouldn’t find baseballs entangled in such a way that hitting one affects another miles away.

Neutrinos Lead to Unexpected Discovery in Basic Math

By Natalie Wolchover

Three physicists wanted to calculate how neutrinos change. They ended up discovering an unexpected relationship between some of the most ubiquitous objects in math.
