Nearly a decade ago, a detector searching for ghostly cosmic particles found two anomalous signals in Antarctic ice. But scientists haven’t been able to find anything similar.

Muons’ magnetism matches theory, easing an enduring physics conundrum New results mend a decades-old crack in the standard model of particle physics, but some questions remain ...

Scientists investigate mysterious signals from Antarctic ice defying physics laws. The ANITA experiment detected anomalous radio waves, not explained by current particle physics.

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

Electrical interposers provide a convenient surface for mounting multiple chips within a single package, but even though interposer lines theoretically can be routed anywhere, insertion losses limit ...

A new statistical physics analysis of the French labour market has revealed that the vast majority of occupations act as so-called condenser occupations. These structural bottlenecks attract workers ...
