What if we could find one single equation that explains every force in the universe Professor Michio Kaku explores how physics could potentially shrink the science of the big bang into an equation ...

Of course, she was an old hand at seeing the universe in a nutshell. It was one of her great virtues as both a writer and a person, and her affinity for tiny, telling details had drawn me to her work ...

How big is the universe? Could it be infinitely large? If the universe has an edge, what is beyond the edge? And if the universe had a beginning, what was going on before that? Our experience of ...

Note: For a definition of unfamiliar terms, see our glossary. The fundamental particles of the universe that physicists have identified—electrons, neutrinos, quarks, and so on—are the "letters ...

Welcome to the Universe is a personal guided tour of the cosmos by three of today’s leading astrophysicists. Inspired by the enormously popular introductory astronomy course that Neil deGrasse Tyson, ...

在探索宇宙奥秘的征途中，一项令人震撼的发现正悄然改变我们对世界的认知：能量，而非物质，构成了这个世界的基石。这一观点挑战了传统的物质观念，揭示了微观与宏观世界背后的共同本质。 从原子到电子，再到质子、中子，乃至最终的夸克，科学家们一 ...

在典型的物理课堂中，学生们试图掌握大量的数学方法以应对物理中的精确计算。因此，学生们常常产生一种印象，认为物理学由定义明确的方程式组成，必须通过严密推理和逻辑步骤来解决。标准化的教科书练习也强化了这种印象。但著名物理学家徐一鸿教授指出，这种标准的教学 ...

A new paper by a team of cosmologists suggests that the current model of the Universe needs to be revised. Dr Eleonora Di Valentino, from The University of Manchester, led the study, with colleagues ...

In a quest to untangle the early history of the Solar System, robotic rovers dispatched from Japan’s spacecraft Hayabusa 2 are now exploring the surface of an asteroid. Before it heads back to ...

Researchers have found that a hypothetical form of dark energy may lead to a grim fate for the universe: a "long freeze" where everything just…slows down. In this scenario, the universe would ...

Artificial intelligence refers to computers that emulate human intelligence. AI systems essentially perform two functions: pattern recognition and robotics. Pattern recognition identifies human ...
