Before we can even begin to talk about these computers' potential applications, we need to understand the fundamental physics behind them. ..
Scientists have begun to decipher the seismic signals that reveal how explosive a volcanic eruption is going to be. ..
Some of nature’s simplest animals suggest that sleep evolved long before centralized nervous systems. ..
The calculations work even in cases where it shouldn’t, like when the black holes are close in size. ..
New work shows that the proteins, long treated as boring spools for DNA, are key to the origin story for eukaryotes and still play important roles in disease. ..
An enigmatic connection between the forces of nature is allowing physicists to explore the quantum side of gravity. ..
They twist and turn on their way to Earth, which has made it nearly impossible to identify the colossal monsters that create them. ..
Some groups of neurons process sensory data and memories at the same time. New work shows how the brain pivots those representations to prevent interference. ..
Fifty years ago, three mathematicians came up with a graph theory problem that they thought they might solve on the spot. A team has finally settled it. ..
