The queen problem is a mathematical task, which already had the great mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss occupied, but for which he surprisingly did not find…
Iron in interstellar environments should also be common, but astrophysicists detect only low levels of the gaseous kind. This implies that the missing iron…
The quest for a better understanding of vacuum physics will lead to the elucidation of fundamental questions in modern physics, which is integral in…
In a paper released today in Science Advances, UNSW researchers describe the first observation of a native ferroelectric metal.
The planet, Gliese 3470 b (also known as GJ 3470 b), may be a cross between Earth and Neptune, with a large rocky core buried under a deep crushing hydrogen…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most enigmatic and powerful events in the cosmos. Around 80 of these events–intensely bright millisecond-long bursts of…
For centuries, humans have been expanding their understanding of the world through more and more precise measurement of light and matter. Today, quantum…
Imagine slow-motion fireworks that started exploding nearly two centuries ago and haven't stopped since then. This is how you might describe this double star…
