The last gasp of a primordial black hole may be the source of the highest-energy "ghost particle" detected to date, a new MIT ...

A new study details how UNSW engineers created 'quantum entangled states' between two phosphorus atoms in silicon.

Super-cooling radioactive atoms could create a laser-like neutrino beam, potentially opening a new avenue for studying these elusive particles and even enabling novel forms of communication. Every ...

The ground-shaking that an earthquake generates is only a fraction of the total energy that a quake releases. A quake can ...

Surprisingly, they found that only around 10% of a quake’s energy causes the physical shaking most people associate with ...

MIT scientists have unraveled the hidden energy balance of earthquakes by recreating them in the lab. Their findings show that while only a sliver of energy goes into the shaking we feel on the ...

"Rai leaves an indelible mark on science and a gaping hole in our lives." Renowned experimental physicist, Nobel laureate and Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Emeritus Rainer Weiss, ...

The College of Natural Sciences welcomed more than a dozen new tenured and tenure-track faculty members in 2025.

QROCODILE has set record-breaking sensitivity in the search for dark matter, detecting signals at energy levels once thought impossible. These results may be just the first step toward finally ...

A groundbreaking new material bends the rules of physics by combining surprising strength with impressive stretch. Scientists have long faced a trade-off in materials science: the stiffer something is ...
