Astronomers have discovered a 2,300-foot-wide (700 meters) asteroid hidden in the sun’s glare, and it’s whizzing through our solar system at a near record-breaking pace.

The skyscraper-size asteroid, named 2025 SC79, loops around the sun once…

To illustrate this further, we now demonstrate how equation (4) leads to entanglement in a version of Feynman’s experiment. Two spherical mass distributions, each with total mass M and radius R, are prepared in a quantum superposition of two…

Caltech researchers co-lead new study refining what we know about the ghostly particles 

Very early on in our universe, when it was a seething hot cauldron of energy, particles made of matter and antimatter bubbled into existence in equal…

Archaeologists say Neolithic Liangzhu residents shaped human skulls and other bones into everyday tools like bowls, cups, masks, and knives. The dig site dates back roughly 5,000 years and documents the first known example of routine human…

Optical atomic clocks just took a clean step forward. An MIT team reports a method that cuts quantum noise and lets a clock resolve twice as many ticks as before.

The work centers on ytterbium atoms and a new way to steady a laser, and careful…
