New results from CERN’s Large Hadron Collider show energetic quarks creating wake-like ripples in quark-gluon plasma, ...
In a recent paper, SFI Professor David Wolpert, SFI Fractal Faculty member Carlo Rovelli, and physicist Jordan Scharnhorst examine a longstanding, paradoxical thought experiment in statistical physics ...
Explore the mysteries of the universe with "25 Universe Theories That Will Keep You Up at Night" - a mind-bending journey ...
Scientists at China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) program rang in the new year with a stunning accomplishment: empirical evidence that they used the device to achieve nuclear ...
Researchers working on China's fully superconducting Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) have experimentally accessed a theorized "density-free regime" for fusion plasmas, achieving ...
Astronomers and cosmologists aren’t known for being incredible at adjectives. Take the Very Large Telescope, or the European Extremely Large Telescope, or even the big bang. But they weren’t wrong ...
The interiors of fusion reactors can get seriously chaotic. But for obvious reasons—like extreme temperatures and pressures—researchers aren’t typically able to peek directly inside a reactor. Some ...
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) in Chile has released its final batch of data after 15 years — and it proves that the Hubble tension, a rift in our understanding of the universe, is very real.
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope in Chile not only confirmed one of the greatest mysteries in the universe—it also ruled out dozens of models that attempted to solve it. Reading time 3 minutes The ...
New experiments at CERN by an international team have ruled out a potential source of intergalactic magnetic fields. The existence of such fields is invoked to explain why we do not observe secondary ...
KDE Plasma 6.6 will include a new workspaces feature. The new feature goes a long way to improve multi-monitor setups. The release should arrive in early 2026. The KDE team has decided to finally ...
