A memory phenomenon known as the anomalous Kovacs effect has been experimentally observed in a granular system for the first ...

Stars collapsing directly into black holes might explain the surprising number of merging black holes of about 10 solar ...

This photograph, which he titled Sea Dragon for the beast-like profile in the crashing wave, earned Elkinton second place in ...

Researchers have used radio observations of rapidly spinning neutron stars to search for signals from supermassive black hole pairs at the dawn of galaxy formation. In our lifetimes, an amazing thing ...

Using sheets of light to corral waves of ultracold atoms, researchers have created an experimental platform for studying the event horizons of black holes. Making waves. Researchers have created a ...

A new formalism yields the quantities that characterize a conventional superconductor without adjustable parameters. In a typical superconductor, 휉 and 휆 are tens to hundreds of nanometers, distances ...

A single, real fish (left) swims in a virtual-reality bowl, where virtual fish are projected onto the walls. The sizes of the virtual fish are enlarged to make them appear closer to the real fish. A ...

The state of a superconducting qubit after a logical operation is determined by a device called a readout resonator. Unfortunately, resonators typically struggle to consistently read their qubits ...

Researchers have proposed that structural disorder can be harnessed to generate coherent, directional light from the passage of a charged particle. When a charged particle such as a relativistic ...

The Rubin Observatory has spotted a distant object that could join Pluto in the Solar System’s exclusive family of dwarf ...
