"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...

Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two ...

A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

Thomas Young, born 250 years ago this week, was a polymath who made seminal contributions in fields from physics to Egyptology. But perhaps his most enduring legacy is proving Isaac Newton wrong about ...

Artificial intelligence is colliding with a hard physical limit: the energy and heat of today’s silicon-based chips. As ...

While the concept of time travel has long captured public imagination, modern physics actually approaches time in a much more ...

Fig. 1 THz wave generation from MoS2 through quantum interference. (a) Schematic diagram of THz wave generation from MoS2 under two-color light excitation at normal incidence. (b) THz waveforms ...
