For the first time, physicists have simulated what objects moving near the speed of light would look like — an optical ...

Dubbing these “closed timelike geodesics” (CTGs), Ralph and Sajeendran explain in the paper: “Such a CTG would be ideal for ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Researchers in the US have studied the physics of how cutting onions can produce a tear-jerking reaction.

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis shared the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics for their work showing how bizarre ...

Emmy Noether showed that fundamental physical laws are just a consequence of simple symmetries. A century later, her insights continue to shape physics. In the fall of 1915, the foundations of physics ...
