A tool called AI-Newton can derive scientific laws from raw data, but is some way from developing human-like reasoning.

A doctoral student travels to Washington to explain the enigma of neutrinos, particles that are as strange as they are ...

Physics is the science that quantifies reality. Its influence extends to all the natural sciences, including biophysics, astronomy, and chemistry. Physics classifies all interactions between matter ...

Grover Washington Jr. Middle School teachers Alison Barnes and Gwen Huett don sumo suits to explain basic physics to fifth grade students as part of the "FMA Live! Forces in Motion" performance on ...

Turbulence, the violently unruly disturbance of plasma, can prevent plasma from growing hot enough to fuel fusion reactions. Long a puzzling concern of researchers has been the impact on turbulence of ...

When you have a balloon floating in a car and start driving, instead of getting thrown back, it actually flies forward. What? Are balloons immune to inertia? Is physics broken? Nope. As ...

Aspirin in form of small crystallites provides new insight into delicate motions of electrons and atomic nuclei. Set into molecular vibration by strong ultrashort far-infrared (terahertz) pulses, the ...

To juniors and seniors at the University of Wisconsin - Madison planning on medical school, introductory physics is far more menacing than its "introductory" title might connote. For many of these ...

I find it odd that some people still express skepticism or outright denial of climate change science. Physicists derived one of the fundamental insights into climate change by 1850: Air holds 7% more ...
