Physicists suggest that a single, extraordinarily powerful cosmic signal detected on Earth could be linked to the explosive end of a tiny black hole from the early universe. That signal now stands as ...

Physicists saw excitons, a type of quasiparticle, undergo a reversible phase transition from superfluid to supersolid for the ...

Physicists at Heidelberg University have developed a new theory that finally unites two long-standing and seemingly incompatible views of how exotic particles behave inside quantum matter. In some ...

Researchers report the first observation of a new type of time crystal that seemingly defies Newton's Third Law of Motion.

New research finds bottled water contains twice as many plastic particles as tap water, with millions of nanoplastics per ...

A strange form of matter called a time crystal has fascinated physicists for about a decade. These systems move in repeating cycles, even without a steady external push.

Time crystals, a collection of particles that "tick"—or move back and forth in repeating cycles—were first theorized and then ...

The famed collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory has ended operations, but if all goes to plan, a new collider will rise ...

Physicists have watched a quantum fluid do something once thought almost impossible: stop moving. In experiments with ...

Data from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has revealed that particles retain spin signatures from the quantum vacuum.

Physicists think a 2023 particle detection marks the first exploding black hole seen. If true, it rewrites our understanding of dark matter.
