Quantum Tunneling Won the 2025 Physics Nobel Prize
Three physicists proved quantum tunneling works at macroscopic scale, laying the foundation for modern quantum computers.
When the Simulation Freezes: A New Method for Physics That Runs at Full Speed
A research team has solved one of computer graphics’ oldest frustrations with physics simulations.
Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Has Nickel but No Iron
The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS arrived with nickel but no iron, a chemical gap that challenges what we know about distant star systems.
Max Tegmark: Consciousness Is a State of Matter We Can Test
MIT physicist Max Tegmark proposes consciousness has testable physical properties. His framework treats awareness as information integration we can measure.
Frank Drake's Orchid and the Search for Life Beyond Earth
Frank Drake's orchid blooms two days a year. His equation for finding alien life organises our ignorance. Brian Cox traces both threads from...
Frederic Schuller Derived Gravity from Electromagnetism Alone
Frederic Schuller derived Einstein's gravity from Maxwell's electromagnetism alone. Now the Twente physicist targets quantum measurement.
Why Physicists Struggle to Kill the Cyclic Universe
Could our universe's expansion be a one-way ticket, defying hopes of cosmic recycling?
How a Teenager Found the Hidden Law of Prime Numbers
Prime number theorem explained through Gauss's teenage discovery. At 15, he found primes follow a logarithmic pattern, a conjecture proven 104 years later.
Ten Physics Problems That Keep Sabine Hossenfelder Awake
Sabine Hossenfelder ranks her ten favourite unsolved physics paradoxes, from Boltzmann Brains to the transporter problem, revealing where mathematics stops making contact with...
TARS: The Solar Sling That Could Launch Interstellar Probes
David Kipping's TARS stores solar energy as spin, then flings a microchip probe beyond the solar system. No lasers, no fuel, just sunlight.
