The universe is approaching the midpoint of its 33-billion-year lifespan, a Cornell physicist calculates with new data from ...

New computer models using simple granular physics have been able to match the curious diamond shape of asteroids like Bennu and Ryugu. In our never-ending quest to understand the universe, and ...

Scientists propose that gravitational waves shaped the universe. Their model challenges inflation theory. How exactly did the ...

A new study by physicists and neuroscientists from the University of Chicago, Harvard and Yale describes how connectivity among neurons comes about through general principles of networking and ...

The standard model of particle physics is often illustrated as a simple grid showing the 17 basic particles (shown above). But an alternative way of visualising it reveals the complex rules that ...

When building a model rocket, it can be fun to get into the maths of it all—calculating the expected performance of your build, and then seeing how it measures up in the real world. To aid in that ...
