This summer, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) took a breath of fresh air. Normally filled with beams of protons, the 27-km ring was reconfigured to enable its first oxygen–oxygen and neon–neon ...

At ultracold temperatures, interatomic collisions are relatively simple, and their outcome can be controlled using a magnetic field. However, research by scientists led by Prof. Michal Tomza from the ...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making significant strides in the realm of physics, demonstrating immense potential across various domains. Among the many fascinating prospects is the application of ...

In June 2025, physicists met at Saariselkä, Finland, to discuss recent progress in the field of ultra-peripheral collisions.

An international team of physicists has studied how particles are produced in high-energy electron–proton collisions through the lens of entanglement entropy Entanglement entropy has emerged as a new ...

When supermassive black holes recoil from a collision, they can reach speeds of up to 1/10th the speed of light, new research suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Artificial intelligence is poised to take LIGO's search for gravitational waves to the next level, with Google's help.
