The aptly named SWEET project was developed by a team of researchers to use sugar crystals for detecting hypothetical light ...

What if I told you that while you can't see dark matter, maybe you can hear it? I know, I know, it sounds crazy…and it is ...

Tohoku University researchers have found a way to make quantum sensors more sensitive by connecting superconducting qubits in ...

Dark matter has two central properties: it has mass like regular matter, and unlike regular matter, it reacts weakly or not at all with light. Neutrinos satisfy these two criteria, but neutrinos move ...

Centuries before anyone pointed a telescope at the sky, Isaac Newton figured out how gravity works. He showed that any object ...

Such an exponential expansion may seem minor, but it is equivalent to a grape in the palm of your hand swelling to become ...

Penn State scientists have devised a new method to predict superconducting materials that could work at higher temperatures.

The proof, known to be so hard that a mathematician once offered 10 martinis to whoever could figure it out, uses number ...

Ozempic, MRI machines and flat screen televisions all emerged out of fundamental research decades earlier — the very types of ...

Huge eruptions from the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole in the distant past may have sterilized much of the inner galaxy ...

Spaceflight rewires the human body. Muscles shrink, bones thin and fluids shift towards the brain – but these changes may ...

Kids today consume far more sugar than recommended, but the effects don’t stop in childhood. New research reveals surprising ways early sugar exposure shapes long-term health. It's not just candy.
