A new study lead by GSI scientists and international colleagues investigates black-hole formation in neutron star mergers. Computer simulations show that the properties of dense nuclear matter play a ...

Estimating things that exist is generally easy, but when it comes to estimating things that do not exist, it's more difficult. This is something physicists from Poland and the UK are well aware of. To ...

To learn more about the nature of matter, energy, space, and time, physicists smash high-energy particles together in large accelerator machines, creating sprays of millions of particles per second of ...

After a three-year-long nap, the world’s largest particle collider is awake and ready to help physicists probe the very edge of science itself, including the possible existence of a mysterious fifth ...

From a height of 45 meters, a massive anvil plummets toward a parked car, turning a routine object into a physics experiment of catastrophic proportions. The collision unleashes enormous kinetic ...

For more than a decade, physicists in the United States have been chasing what came to be known as a “ghost particle” — the sterile neutrino. It was a hypothetical addition to the Standard Model of ...

New experiments using one-dimensional gases of ultra-cold atoms reveal a universality in how quantum systems composed of many particles change over time following a large influx of energy that throws ...
