Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

Gas kinetic theory provides the fundamental framework for understanding the behaviour of gases from the molecular scale to macroscopic flow phenomena. Recent developments in simulation methods have ...

Physicists in Innsbruck have realized the first quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories, building a bridge between high-energy theory and atomic physics. Research teams describe how they ...

The reality we understand and interact with daily might, according to some scientists, be nothing more than an elaborate ...

Scientists are on the trail of a mysterious five-particle structure that could challenge one of the biggest theories in physics: string theory. This rare particle—never seen before and predicted not ...

In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift in plasma physics research. In the past, large magnetic fusion experiments have made considerable progress, with theory often being subordinate and ...

What if the classic late 90s sci-fi flick The Matrix actually had it right? What if we're all just living inside of a computer simulation? That's the idea behind a 2003 paper by Nick Bostrom, a ...
