Explore the fascinating physics of a pig flying in a circle while hanging from a string! In this video, we break down concepts like circular motion, tension, centripetal force, and acceleration, ...

Published January 7 in the journal Nature, one paper tackled the age-old problem of nature’s construction with a bit of a twist: it suggests that living networks, like our brain, may use some of the ...

The 2026 edition of the traditional Boltzmann Lecture will be held on Monday, February 23rd, at 14:00, in Room 128–129. The lecture is organized by the Statistical Physics group at SISSA, close to ...

Much to the delight of the mainstream media, there's a battle royal going on in physics. Over recent months, a fair bit of mud has been slung in the theoretical physics community over the issue of ...

Measuring conditions in volatile clouds of superheated gases known as plasmas is central to pursuing greater scientific ...

A strange form of matter called a time crystal has fascinated physicists for about a decade. These systems move in repeating cycles, even without a steady external push.

In some ways, data and its quality can seem strange to people used to assessing the quality of software. There’s often no observable behaviour to check and little in the way of structure to help you ...

Astronomers use the term dark energy to refer to energy in the universe that is unaccounted for by ordinary matter but ...

Already, Loki feels like Emperor material, and he definitely surpasses the former Warlords of the Sea and other pre-time skip ...

An exclusive conversation with Kevin Weil, head of OpenAI for Science, a new in-house team that wants to make scientists more productive.

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...
