The most extreme black hole collision ever recorded looked, at first, like it should not have happened at all. Two objects each weighing roughly as much as one hundred Suns crashed together in a ...

For the first time, scientists have detected two black hole mergers with spins so unusual they may reveal a new generation of cosmic collisions. The twin discoveries, labeled GW241011 and GW241110, ...

Boiling sea of quarks and gluons, including virtual ones – this is how we can imagine the main phase of high-energy proton ...

Sebastian Mizera just joined the physics department as an assistant professor, researching quantum field theory.

Electron–proton collisions Study reveals importance of entanglement entropy. (Courtesy: Kevin Coughlin/Brookhaven National Laboratory) An international team of physicists has used the principle of ...

A big part of physics is understanding collisions and how they're not all the same. COLLISIONS! A big part of physics is understanding collisions and how they're not all the same. Mass, momentum, and ...

Heavy collisions Artist’s impression charged particle tracks streaming from a collision of two uranium nuclei overlaid on a sketch of the STAR detector at RHIC. The incoming uranium nuclei are shown ...

Experimental physicists study the strong force; string theorists try to calculate its effects. Together, they are finding common ground, where string theory can be applied to the physics of ...
