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

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

Physicists have discovered an exotic new state of matter that takes the form of a highly ordered crystal of subatomic particles. The new state of matter, called a "bosonic correlated insulator," could ...

Matter has had the reigns of interconnectivity between smart home devices for just about a year, and a new expansion into more complex and useful devices is already taking place with Matter 1.2, which ...

Matter 1.2 just arrived, and it's moving the smart home into innovating automations in a way we've never seen before. The smart home connectivity standard is expanding to include support for nine new ...
