Scientists discover how to turn light into matter after 80-year quest

Physicists are developing a camera trap-like tech to hunt for elusive dark matter. Ashutosh Kotwal, a physicist at Duke University, is working on a silicon device that will act as a “camera trap,” ...

Recent advancements in tachyon theory have addressed past inconsistencies by incorporating both past and future states into the boundary conditions, leading to a new quantum entanglement theory and ...

Researchers have determined that much of the matter around us formed later than previously thought, providing a deeper understanding of the universe's early conditions.

Mapping dark matter’s distribution across the universe can also reveal how well theoretical models of the universe line up with observational data. In their recent work, the Lyman-Alpha Forest ...

Dark matter, the most mysterious "stuff" in the universe, may be a sort of cosmic matchmaker, allowing supermassive black holes to overcome a final hurdle before colliding and merging into one ...

The dense peaks in the wavelength distribution graph observed in a Lyman-Alpha forest indeed resemble many small trees. Each of those peaks represents a sudden drop in "light" at a specific and narrow ...

Such photovoltaic cells, which can also be integrated into various electronic devices, generate electricity even in low-light ... Manufacturing Perovskite Solar Panels With a Long-Term Vision July ...

A new calculation helps scientists understand how matter formed out of the hot, dense soup of subatomic particles created by the Big Bang.

The powerful plasmonic tools can be deeply delved into the novel optical effects in two-dimensional materials (such as valley properties, and moiré superlattices) to reveal more possibilities.

Researchers have found a link between some of the largest and smallest objects in the cosmos: supermassive black holes and dark matter particles. Their new calculations reveal that pairs of ...
