A new study published in Physical Review Letters (PRL) proposes using gravitational wave detectors like LIGO to search for ...
A long-awaited calculation of the W boson’s mass agrees with theory, contradicting a previous anomaly that had raised the ...
The dappled starlight and swirling clouds of Vincent van Gogh’s “The Starry Night” are thought to reflect the artist’s tumultuous state of mind when he painted the work in 1889. Now, a new analysis by ...
New scientific theories often use mathematical methods developed decades earlier. The two greatest advances in physics in the ...
ALBERT Einstein theorized in 1916 that two merging black holes create ripples in the spacetime fabric, similar to how a pebble creates ripples in a pond. These ripples, called gravitational waves, ...
This theoretical study makes a useful contribution to our understanding of a subtype of type 2 diabetes – ketosis-prone diabetes mellitus (KPD) – with a potential impact on our broader understanding ...
For decades, a black hole that has as much spin or charge as it can given it mass was considered mathematically impossible. A ...
Crary, J. (2024) Proof of Concept for a Twin Prime Number Universe Using Set Theory. American Journal of Computational ...
A colossal rockslide that triggered a mega-tsunami caused the Earth to ‘hum’ for days, an event scientists say is directly ...
Theoretical physics uses concepts and methods encoded in mathematical language to explain physical reality. At the Institute for Theoretical Physics (ITP), we study physical systems on every scale, ...
