Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

Physicists have spent decades arguing over whether our universe is a fundamental reality or a kind of cosmic software, and ...

The universe is full of fascinating physics that have been experimentally confirmed but are still far from fully explained. In an unpublished paper, circa 2018, titled The P2P Simulation Hypothesis ...

Physicists have long struggled to explain why the universe started out with conditions suitable for life to evolve. Why do the physical laws and constants take the very specific values that allow ...

Luminary is rethinking physics simulation workflows spanning GPU clusters from the ground up. The new company hopes the new architecture and business model will impact the simulation industry as much ...

Conceptual advance Anatole von Lilienfeld sees machine learning as a powerful tool for discoveries in science. The term “machine learning” means different things to different people. What’s your ...

The Matter of Everything tells the history of physics through experiments. Any book about the history of science for a general audience will, of necessity, be something of a distortion. The question ...

If you’re interested in VR, you’ve probably thought at least once or twice about the simulation hypothesis—the idea that we might actually already be living in a virtual reality world. Many people are ...
