Watching the celebrations for the inauguration of the New York City mayor, my mind suddenly turned back to my intellectual ...

This video demonstrates how to model rigid objects using springs in a Python physics simulation. We explore how spring forces approximate rigidity, analyze motion and stability, and visualize the ...

The platypus is one of evolution's lovable, oddball animals. The creature seems to defy well-understood rules of biology by ...

How assorted objects behave under hydraulic pressure shows varied material responses. Donald Trump's approval rating changing ...

Exotic hypothetical particles known as axions could be produced inside a nuclear reactor, something The Big Bang Theory’s ...

Almost exactly 200 years ago, French physicist Sadi Carnot determined the maximum efficiency of heat engines. The Carnot ...

It sounds like something from the plot of Interstellar, but this plan to beam precious data back to Earth—before it’s lost ...

The central mystery posed by 3I/ATLAS is not merely about whether we are alone, but about the sheer scale of the potential ...

Kauai, one of the most remote islands of Hawaii, stands steady among the timeless crash of ocean waves. Electric waves, ...

A collaboration between Stuart Parkin's group at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle (Saale) and Claudia Felser's group at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

Theoretical physics is the development of mathematical formalisms and computational protocols for describing all aspects of objects found in the world around us and their interaction. This can involve ...
