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 In an unpublished paper, circa 2018, titled The P2P Simulation Hypothesis ...

The idea that reality might be a kind of cosmic software has moved from late night dorm debates into serious physics journals ...

Particle physicists are building innovative machine-learning algorithms to enhance Monte Carlo simulations with the power of AI. Originally developed nearly a century ago by physicists studying ...

In physics, quasiparticles are used to describe complex processes in solids. In ultracold quantum gases, these quasiparticles can be reproduced and studied. Now scientists have been able to observe in ...

Could we be trapped inside a simulated reality, rather than the physical universe we usually assume? It’s a tantalizing theory, long theorized by philosophers and popularized by the 1999 blockbuster ...

Sam Baron receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Scientists made headlines last week for supposedly generating a wormhole. The research, reported in Nature, involves the use of a ...

Researchers led by Rice University's Guido Pagano used a specialized quantum device to simulate a vibrating molecule and ...

Subatomic particles such as quarks can pair up when linked by ‘strings’ of force fields — and release energy when the strings are pulled to the point of breaking. Two teams of physicists have now used ...
