A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.

For more than 50 years, scientists have dreamed of seeing the hidden patterns that govern the motion of nonlinear waves—the unpredictable ripples that shape tsunamis, tides, and turbulent flows. Now, ...

Physicists are quietly rolling out a new generation of simulation codes that promise to do more than crunch numbers. By weaving together quantum theory, astrophysical data and high precision sensors, ...

In a potential boon for quantum computing, physicists have shown that topologically protected quantum states can be entangled with other, highly manipulable quantum states in some electronic materials ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one. In everyday ...
