When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it ...

Dark energy—the term used to describe whatever is causing the universe to expand at an increasing rate—is one of the universe’s greatest mysteries. The most widely accepted theory currently suggests ...

Why does light carry energy even though it has no mass? This video explains the real physics behind photons, energy–momentum relationships, and how light can transfer energy and momentum without mass.

For more than a century, physics has been built on two great theories. Einstein's general relativity explains gravity as the bending of space and time. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

New research suggests that dark energy isn't needed to explain the acceleration in the expansion of the universe — instead suggesting giant voids in space are creating an illusion. When you purchase ...

There are hints that the universe may be behaving unexpectedly, and astrophysicists are racing to explain why. Their ideas to account for the surprising result include allowing dark matter and dark ...

Recent advances in quantum technologies are rapidly emerging as powerful tools for pushing the boundaries of High Energy Physics (HEP), offering innovative paradigms for simulating quantum field ...
