Researchers have for the first time created a reconfigurable polariton 2D quasicrystal. The team from the Skolkovo Institute ...

Electron-capture supernovae (ECSNe) are stellar explosions that occur in stars with initial masses around 8–10 times that of ...

According to the laws of physics, matter and antimatter behave the same way and were formed in equal quantities in the Big ...

If a new research paper’s theory is correct, then there should be a much higher population of very small, very luminous galaxies in the early universe. With everything we learn about the nature of ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope may have found the universe’s first “dark stars.” Within the first few hundred million years after the Big Bang, the universe’s earliest stars took ...

Dark matter clumps could act as stellar lampshades, drifting between Earth and distant stars, dimming them by an almost imperceptible amount, a new study suggests. If this idea is correct, such "dark ...

Ah, dark matter. Creator of the universe, sculptor of galaxies, great brewer of coffee (probably). There seems to be nothing it can’t do, or isn’t responsible for, but there’s just one problem: Where ...

Students will learn how to categorize matter as either pure substances or mixtures. Students will apply tests, based on physical properties of matter samples, to determine whether a mixture is ...
