A new type of gravitational wave detector running in Western Australia has recorded two rare events that might be signals of dark matter or primordial black holes. These high-frequency gravitational ...

Now, Takahito Iida at the University of Osaka has proposed a new energy-harvesting technology that uses gyroscopic flywheel system that can be tuned to absorb energy efficiently over a broad range of ...

Physicists at NYU have discovered a new type of time crystal—an exotic state of matter whose particles rhythmically “tick” while levitating on sound waves.

Just a few months ago, scientists reported the detection of very low-frequency gravitational waves. Now a pair of German astrophysicists has investigated two intriguing possible sources – the universe ...

Imagine a world where your phone stays cool no matter how long you use it, and it's also equipped with tiny sensors that can identify dangerous chemicals or pollutants with unparalleled sensitivity ...

A new crew of potential ripples in spacetime has just debuted — emphasis on the word “potential.” By loosening the criteria for what qualifies as evidence for gravitational waves, physicists ...

Breaking waves shape our coastlines, sink cruise ships and fishing vessels and play a crucial role in climate systems. Yet, despite decades of research, scientists have struggled to fully explain why ...

Gravitational-wave astronomers have for the first time detected a collision between two black holes of substantially different masses—opening up a new vista on astrophysics and on the physics of ...
