This week, among a lot of other important findings, we learned that emperor cichlid fish have gaze sensitivity and dislike it ...

A compact terahertz imaging system has achieved near video-rate scanning at a spatial resolution of around 360 micrometers, ...

Gravitational waves are ripples in spacetime produced by violent cosmic events, such as the merging of black holes. So far, direct detections have relied on measuring tiny distance changes over kilome ...

A recent line of inquiry explores how atomic systems behave when immersed in curved spacetime, particularly under the influence of gravitational waves. In a new study, scientists show that ...

Although commonly described as a tsunami, the titular wave in The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai is more likely an example of a large rogue wave. For centuries, sailors spoke of two maritime ...

Time crystals sound like something out of a SciFi movie, but they are real and easier to see than ever.

A new quantum system called giant superatoms could protect quantum information and enable entanglement between multiple qubits. The concept merges giant atoms and superatoms to improve stability and ...

Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger developed quantum theory’s wave equation, which describes quantum systems as waves that ...

As binary neutron stars spiral around each other to merge, their gravitational tidal forces distort each other's shape and structure, potentially revealing clues as to what lies within them.

Investors in D-Wave Quantum are currently presented with a complex and contradictory financial narrative. The company’s recent quarterly performance fell short ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois have discovered a surprising mathematical connection between two areas of condensed ...

A new University of Mississippi study shows that some sound waves don't just move forward—they also move slightly to the side. Understanding this movement could help researchers develop more precise ...
