Light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, challenging traditional wave-particle thinking.

Scientists discovered strange light pulses that appear without buildup and resist interference, thanks to time’s one-way flow ...

The solar gravitation lens (SGL) has much potential as a telescope. This point in space, located about 650 AU away from the ...

Future space missions could use quantum technologies to help us understand the physical laws that govern the universe, ...

A lab experiment has successfully demonstrated the black hole bomb effect, a theory first proposed more than 50 years ago.

Astronomers have probed the physical environment of repeating X-ray outbursts near monster black holes thanks to data from NASA's NICER (Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer) and other missions.

Astronomers believe starquakes on highly magnetic neutron stars could lead to the creation of heavy elements such as gold, ...
