An international team of mathematicians led by University of Pittsburgh Professor Thomas Hales has delivered a formal proof of the Kepler conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry. The team’s paper is published in the journal Forum of Mathematics, Pi.
Some have cast doubt about the existence of black hole event horizons from which nothing, not even light, can escape the gravitational pull.
A UK, Canadian and Italian study has provided what researchers believe is the first observational evidence that our universe could be a vast and complex hologram.
Astronomers in the US are setting up an experiment which, if it fails – as others have – could mark the end of a 30-year-old theory
It is entirely possible that Planet 9 could have come from our own solar system, instead of it being captured from another solar system.
Dr. Michio Kaku, a theoretical physicist at the City College of New York (CUNY) and co-founder of String Field Theory, says theoretical particles known as “primitive semi-radius tachyons” are physical evidence that the universe was created by a higher intelligence.
Breakthrough Starshot has examined the impact of stray atoms, cosmic dust.
The cosmos may have rebounded from an earlier contraction and “big crunch” into a “big bang” that started it all over again
We may have to revise our concept of reality, because numerous prominent scientists consider that there is a chance for our world to be a refined hologram, and everything we perceive to be in fact blips of data on a cosmic screen.
In December of last year, scientists at the Large Hadron Collider in Europe announced startling results hinting at the existence of an undiscovered subatomic particle—one with a mass six times heavier than the Higgs boson, the particle that made headlines in 2012.
