Quantum physics overturned classical ideas by showing that matter behaves very differently at the ...

The first chemical reactions in the wake of the Big Bang have been recreated for the first time in conditions similar to those in the baby Universe. A team of physicists Led by Florian Grussie of the ...

Megan Molteni reports on discoveries from the frontiers of genomic medicine, neuroscience, and reproductive tech. She joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at WIRED. You can reach ...

Researchers are trying to understand how cells transition from earth to space. A university professor is about to venture out of this world to carry out a science experiment decades in the making.

Five years ago, on April 10, 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope — a matrix of radio observatories situated around the world that turn the Earth into one giant radio telescope — captured something ...

One of nuclear fusion’s biggest advances wouldn’t have happened without some impeccable scientific artistry. In December 2022, researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California ...

A new experiment could in principle test the quantumness of an object regardless of its mass or energy. An experiment outlined by a UCL (University College London)-led team of scientists from the UK ...

A novel experiment has revealed a phenomenon called the Bohr–Weisskopf effect in a pear-shaped nucleus in a molecule for the first time. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

An experiment outlined by a UCL-led team could test whether relatively large masses have a quantum nature, resolving the question of whether quantum mechanical description works at a much larger scale ...
