Letters: Roger Downie notes that jokes can be lost in translation, while Tim Jones remembers a feeble attempt at humour, and Denis McCullough recalls a few physics gags ...

The finding was discovered by Rajendra Gupta, a physics professor at the University of Ottawa, who has proposed a model that ...

Relax, it’s only happening in theoretical physics—at least for now.

A new model suggests the universe could tear itself apart as expansion accelerates, with quantum effects potentially driving ...

Physicists Gimin Bae, Youngjae Kim, and Jae Dong Lee have identified a specific microscopic process that causes quantum coherence to collapse in solid-state materials, pinning the timescale of ...

After a 10-year effort, physicists got a value for “Big G” that does not settle the debate over one of nature’s hardest ...

This manuscript presents important findings that challenge traditional models of speech processing by demonstrating that theta-gamma phase-amplitude coupling in the auditory cortex is primarily a ...

Observations don’t match the predictions of the standard model—and it’s not just a fluke.

HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env), a gp120–gp41 trimer, undergoes coordinated conformational changes that drive membrane fusion and allow immune evasion by transiently concealing ...

When people talk about college affordability, they usually mean tuition. But for LGBTQ+ students like me, that’s not the whole story. I grew up in southeast San Diego in a low-income, single-parent ...

In the Patagonian Desert, the land stretches flat and endless, broken occasionally by a ribbon of blue river or lake. The wind rarely stops. Water is never guaranteed, and at night the stars appear in ...

Crowder near the bomb. Riding mower or garden issue? Quality and real milk start? China seemingly headed for crash? Downtown should be entertaining. Meaning brand new. My ending place. Crank on that ...
