At a singularity, the laws of physics as we know them suffer a complete breakdown. So such objects really shouldn’t exist.

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger ...

Scientists developed a new model, which provides mathematical evidence that singularities are hidden inside black holes.

Since it was first demonstrated in the 1960s, spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) has been at the center of many ...

Microwave Journal "Mandel and Wolf's treatise on the subject impresses by its volume and completeness....The book is unique in that it successfully brings together coherence theory and quantum theory ...

IN a very interesting letter published in NATURE of Sept. 22, p. 439, Gurney and Condon have used wave mechanics to give a qualitative explanation of many features of natural α-ray disintegration.

Black holes are influenced by quantum mechanics to some extent, but such influence is normally ignored by physicists. For example, Penrose excluded these effects in his work, as did the theory that ...

Its logo features obvious black and white-themed branding, which should perhaps not be a surprise considering Pokémon Black and White region Unova is next on the docket to be featured in the game ...

Historical photos are our window into what happened in the past. Before doctoring, AI and Photoshop became the norm, photographs were the best way to get an idea of important historical events. The ...
