Scientists found exotic prime numbers may play a role in black hole physics, revealing a surprising connection between number theory and the extreme environments of the universe.

Beyond defence, GaN also has strong civilian potential. “GaN can handle more current and switch at higher frequency, which reduces the size and weight of power systems,” Gupta said, noting that ...

Scientists have developed instruments capable of measuring forces so small they are almost impossible to imagine. In specialized laboratories, devices like electrostatic force balances and microscopic ...

My travel schedule has become much busier recently, so I’ve been on a lot of flights. This inspired me to share what I think is a helpful metaphor. Please bear with me. In the late 1600s, Isaac Newton ...

In an exclusive interview with WIRED, Block’s cofounder and CEO says he axed 40 percent of his workforce so that he can ...

But the creepiest layer of Marathon ’s mythology involves entities called the W’rkncacnter — primordial forces of chaos so dangerous they were imprisoned inside stars, black holes, and only ...

Edited by Mónica Bello, In the Spaces Between is a sustained reflection on the long-running Arts at CERN programme.

Because of years of practice, the players who astonish us game after game make these micro-calculations at an unconscious level. In a fraction of a second, their eyes assess all the variables, and ...

The team’s theoretical calculations were largely supported by the results, and showed it’s all about the viscosity. Water reached the 90 percent mark in only a few seconds. Meanwhile, cold maple syrup ...

Densely packed polymer chains can spontaneously start moving in one direction, even without being pushed, a finding that could explain DNA behavior and inspire new smart materials.

Researchers at the University of Vienna have uncovered a surprising phenomenon: polymer chains with segments that simply fluctuate at different intensities can spontaneously develop directional, ...
