For more than a century, schoolbook physics has divided matter into neat categories like solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. A ...

Physicists are no longer content to simply listen to ripples in spacetime. A new proposal sketches out how an exquisitely ...

In 2023, physicists were awed to find nearly imperceptible ripples in the fabric of space and time — united as an entity known as spacetime. They were ripples discovered in association with ...

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.
