Physicists have used machine learning approaches to uncover unexpected details about how particles interact within complex systems. Their research focuses on non-reciprocal forces, where one particle affects another particle differently and vice versa. The survey results are PNASthe result of a collaboration between experimental and theoretical physicists at Emory University. By combining a custom neural … Read more

A new study by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has bridged the gap between quantum and classical physics. This study shows that mathematical ideas from classical physics can be used to explain the strange and “spooky” behavior attributed to quantum particles. Despite the development of applications such as quantum computing and sensing, … Read more
When you throw a ball into the air, the equations of classical physics tell you exactly what path it will take as it falls, and exactly when and where it will land. However, if you squeeze the same ball down to a subatomic size, it will behave in ways that cannot be predicted by classical … Read more

Black holes have long been associated with inconsistencies and limitations in known physics, particularly regarding how black holes interact with their environment. One such interaction involves tidal forces, the gravitational effects exerted by nearby objects, and is commonly used to investigate the internal structure of celestial bodies. For decades, scientists have relied on a quantity … Read more
Physicists studying the famous Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, say a recent experiment may reveal undiscovered physics that casts doubt on the Standard Model. The Standard Model, considered the dominant framework of modern physics for more than half a century, is now faced with intriguing hints from LHC experiments that suggest … Read more
