This video explores the question of why the sky is dark, examining key concepts such as the infinite nature of the Universe and Olber’s Paradox. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 00:53 Why is the sky dark?

How is it that quantum physics governs the very smallest things in the universe, yet classical, Newtonian rules describe the movements of everything else, from people to planets? In the second of two ...

The Denver Broncos lost starting left guard Ben Powers to a torn biceps injury in Week 5's victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. The Broncos believed he would be back in December, and they've ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

Abstract: Unit commitment (UC) problems are typically formulated as mixed-integer programs (MIP) and solved by the branch-and-bound (B&B) scheme. The recent advances in graph neural networks (GNN) ...

While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of ...

Even with quantum mechanics and relativity, physics can’t explain everything. Three problems — quantum gravity, dark matter, and turbulent flow — remain unsolved despite decades of research. Each one ...

As a parent or caretaker, you want what's best for your child. When your son expresses questions about his gender identity, you might feel confused, scared, or unsure about the right path forward.

The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Oct. 7 in Chiles v. Salazar, a challenge to Colorado’s 2019 law prohibiting licensed health care professionals from providing so-called conversion ...

Scientists at TU Wien have uncovered that quantum correlations can stabilize time crystals—structures that oscillate in time without an external driver. Contrary to previous assumptions, quantum ...

Editor's note: If you or someone you know may be considering suicide or is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The Supreme Court hears arguments Tuesday in a case about ...

Brilliant Physicist Ira Maximilian Freeman, who took his University of Chicago Ph.D. in 1928 when only 22, spends most of his time on abstruse equations of quantum theory. But Dr. Freeman is also a ...
