Mathematicians have broken through a long-standing barrier in the study of “minimizing surfaces,” which play an important ...

What happens to the body in the deep sea? You need oxygen to survive, but too much oxygen can be deadly. If you rise to the surface too quickly, nitrogen bubbles can form in your body and kill you.

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s ...

String theory unifies all the forces of nature. Forces that seem very different, such as gravity and electricity, are deeply ...

A tool called AI-Newton can derive scientific laws from raw data, but is some way from developing human-like reasoning.

For over a decade, mathematicians have failed to agree whether a 500-page proof is actually correct. Now, translating the ...

A new theory-based approach provides access to the minute transverse motion of quarks within protons. Nuclear physicists have developed a new theoretical framework that allows them to calculate a ...

Lesser advocates might point out that no, evolution is a long-term process built off the back of myriad imperceptible changes ...

A novel experiment has revealed a phenomenon called the Bohr–Weisskopf effect in a pear-shaped nucleus in a molecule for the ...
