When space telescopes blazed with high-energy radiation for hours earlier this year, astronomers suspected that they were witnessing something special. The cosmic flash GRB 250702B was no run-of-the-mill gamma-ray burst—it was the…

Physicists at a New York collider have tightened the search for a long-predicted tipping point in nuclear matter. The new result marks a sharp feature at 19.6 billion electron volts per nucleon pair that could signal where the strong force…

Small stone tools in South China reflect a history of adaptation. A new analysis shows that people repeatedly chose small, portable designs as climates shifted and groups moved.

The scale is large for archaeology. A team examined more than 12,000…
