Mathematician Grigori Perelman solved the Poincaré conjecture, and then rejected the $1 million prize that came with it.

A world-famous light experiment from 1801 has now been carried out with sound for the first time. Research by physicists in ...

Physicists have developed a novel approach to solving one of the most persistent problems in theoretical physics: uniting gravity with the quantum world. In a recent paper published in the journal ...

Wolfgang Pauli was in something of an agitated state. The Austrian scientist found himself in Rome in 1931, in a seething mixture of nervousness, excitement, and consternation. Only 31, he was already ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics. John Clarke, ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Three years ago, there was a frenzy over an experiment at Fermilab that confirmed anomaly of the muon - a fundamental particle in the standard model. Since then, physicists ...

CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron will turn 50 in 2026—and it has a resonant “ghost.” Using mathematics, physicists measured and modeled how these resonant lines intersect. Modeling a 3D shape over time ...
