The reference frames from which observers view quantum events can themselves have multiple possible locations at once — an ...

The clearest picture yet of our “last universal common ancestor” suggests it was a relatively complex organism living 4.2 ...

With lots of data, a strong model and statistical thinking, scientists can make predictions about all sorts of complex phenomena. Today, this practice is evolving to harness the power of machine ...

A new experimental proposal suggests detecting a particle of gravity is far easier than anyone imagined. Now physicists are debating what it would really prove. Curious connections between physics and ...

A 1930s-era breakthrough is helping physicists understand how quantum threads could weave together into a holographic space-time fabric. Until his dying days, the giant of 20th-century physics ...

Is physics finished? The 21st century is often called the age of biology. Or artificial intelligence. Or any other emerging field. This relegates physics to the previous century — the golden days when ...

Teleporting people through space is still science fiction. But quantum teleportation is dramatically different and entirely real. In this episode, Janna Levin interviews the theoretical physicist John ...

Cancer treatment has come a long way in recent decades. But finding the best course of treatment for each case of this diverse, dynamic disease remains a challenge. In this episode, co-host Steven ...

While devising a new quantum algorithm, four researchers accidentally established a hard limit on entanglement.
