In 2019, LIGO and Virgo recorded something truly bizarre – a gravitational wave event less than a tenth of a second in duration. Compared to the drawn-out chirps of black hole binaries on decaying ...
Japanese physicists have revived Kelvin’s old idea of cosmic knots, showing how these tangled fields might explain why matter ...
Could it be that the universe’s first structures were born not from enigmatic inflaton fields, but from the echoes of ancient gravitational waves? In a shocking shift from the conventional picture of ...
Exact solutions in electromagnetic fields and gravitational dynamics offer a rigorous window into the fundamental interactions that govern our universe. By applying advanced mathematical ...
There’s a new entrant in the competition to develop ever-tinier instruments that can detect changes in our planet’s gravitational field — a tabletop device roughly the size of two smartphone stacked ...

The weak gravitational pull on a particle just half the mass of a grain of sand has been measured for the first time. This most precise measurement of its kind is a breakthrough towards the quantum ...
The tools of artificial intelligence — neural networks in particular — have been good to physicists. For years, this technology has helped researchers reconstruct particle trajectories in accelerator ...
Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is showing signs of "non-gravitational acceleration" as it reached its perihelion. In early July ...
