Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in ...

Physicists have long sought to describe the universe in terms of equations. Now, S James Gates explains how research on a class of geometric symbols known as adinkras could lead to fresh insights into ...

More than a century after Srinivasa Ramanujan scribbled his astonishing formulas for π in notebooks in India and England, ...

For physicists Katy Grimm and Katharine Leney, science is a piece of cake. If one wanted to follow the recipe for the universe, it would call for about 14 parts dark energy, 5 parts dark matter and 1 ...

Discover how continuous particle flux measurements are paving the way for energy solutions in India's digital landscape.

In a new paper, physicists argue that hypothetical particles called axions could explain why the universe isn’t empty. Physicists have long hypothesized the existence of a minuscule particle called ...

E = mc 2 is probably the most recognized physics equation among the general public, beating out Newton's Second Law of motion, F = ma. Despite that recognition by the outside world, E = mc 2 is hardly ...

Over the weekend, cosmologist and author Sean Carroll tweeted about what physics majors should know, namely that "the Standard Model is an SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) gauge theory, and know informally what that ...
