Gravity may seem constant, but it actually varies across the planet—and one of the strangest places is Antarctica, where gravity is slightly weaker than expected. Scientists have traced this “gravity ...

The results include a comparison between two different basis functions for temporal selectivity and how these generate different predictions for the dynamics of neural populations. The conclusions are ...

In a research project that has real implications for their regular laboratory work, a pair of physicists at Brown University ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Basketball shoes on a gym floor, bicycle brakes in need of a tune-up, or the squeal of tires are everyday examples of squeaking sounds. Such sounds have long been attributed to stick-slip friction, or ...

A team led by astrophysicist Simon Blouin at the University of Victoria has used one of the world’s fastest supercomputers to ...

A subtle twist between atomically thin magnetic layers can generate unexpectedly large and complex spin structures.

A team of EPFL researchers has developed an AI algorithm that can model complex dynamical processes while taking into account the laws of physics—using Newton's third law. Their research is published ...

Advances in supercomputing have made solving a long‐standing astronomical conundrum possible: How can we explain the changes in the chemical composition at the surface of red giant stars as they ...

The U.S. Army quietly stood up a new rotational force in the Philippines as part of a “shift” in its expanding cooperation with partners in the western Pacific. But it did not reveal it for months.

Experts recommend you rotate your tires every 4,000 to 8,000 miles. While most drivers tend to stay on top of regular maintenance, there are a few important procedures they may overlook. Getting an ...
