A 2,000-page monograph series proposes a new conceptual framework connecting quantum physics, gravitation and cosmological evolution.

Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have demonstrated a new kind of vacuum ultraviolet laser that is 100 to 1,000 times more efficient than existing technologies of its kind. The ...

Rydberg atoms are atoms with one or more outer electrons excited to very high energy levels, which interact very strongly with each other. These atoms are widely used to run quantum simulations and ...

In my last column, I argued that the server farm is the new oil refinery, a kinetic target requiring concrete walls, anti-drone domes, and deep integration into national air defence grids. The logic ...
