An international team of researchers has forced light to replicate the quantum Hall effect, a Nobel Prize–winning phenomenon that, until now, belonged almost exclusively to electrons moving through ...

Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall effect that was previously seen only in electrons confined to ultra-thin ...

Gravitational waves are ripples in spacetime produced by violent cosmic events, such as the merging of black holes. So far, ...

A new study published in Nature Astronomy indicates that the dense, star- and dark-matter–rich environments around supermassive black hole binaries pack on the order of a million solar masses into ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of ...

Scientists from Tomsk Polytechnic University, as part of an international collaboration, have proved that electrons in two-dimensional materials can move in a transverse direction even in the absence ...

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

A report from the ALICE experiment. Fig. 1. Away-side per-trigger nuclear modification factor I AA as a function of the associated-particle transverse momentum. Blue circles show jets tagged by ...
