Math and physics explain the anguish of a golf ball that zings around the rim of the hole instead of falling in.
If you’ve ever been on an airplane, you know how turbulence feels: shaky and chaotic. Just like there is turbulence in the ...
A theoretical framework predicts the emergence of non-reciprocal interactions that effectively violate Newton's third law in ...
A mathematical investigation of galactic data suggests elusive dark matter is confined to the rules of gravity.
Rice University researchers studying a class of atom-thin semiconductors known as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) ...
How do we know the speed of light – and why does it have a speed limit at all? Leah Crane explores the history of one of the most important numbers in the universe ...
Scientists have discovered that dark matter, the universe's most mysterious "stuff," obeys gravity on vast cosmological scales. This could help to dismiss the possibility of a fifth fundamental force ...
Astronomers are rethinking one of cosmology’s biggest mysteries: dark energy. New findings show that evolving dark energy models, tied to ultra-light axion particles, may better fit the universe’s ...
