Henry Yuen is developing a new mathematical language to describe problems whose inputs and outputs aren’t ordinary numbers.

For the modern technology leader, the quest for peak performance has traditionally been a matter of chemistry, an endless ...

A grape, sliced nearly in half and placed in a household microwave, can produce a bright flash of plasma, the same high-energy state of matter found in lightning bolts and the surface of the sun. For ...

We are used to heat flowing from hot objects to cool ones, and never the other way round, but now researchers have found it is possible to pull off this trick in the strange realm of quantum mechanics ...

Discover the fundamentals of light in a simple and easy-to-understand way. This video explains key principles and fascinating phenomena of light, including how it travels, reflects, refracts, and ...

At the smallest scales of matter, nature behaves in ways that feel almost counterintuitive. Individual particles follow simple rules, but when they interact together, entirely new behaviors can ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...
