Researchers in Sweden have developed a machine-learning approach that embeds the laws of physics directly into neural ...

Looking back at the history of computers, it’s hard to overestimate the rate at which computing power has scaled in the course of just a single human lifetime. But yet, existing classical computers ...

Designing materials that steer light is a slow kind of trial and error. Each candidate structure must be tested in computer ...

Scientists found that transfer learning can make the search for new physics in the universe much faster, slashing the need ...

The simulated universe theory implies that our universe, with all its galaxies, planets and life forms, is a meticulously programmed computer simulation. In this scenario, the physical laws governing ...

Researchers at Leipzig University have developed a highly efficient method to investigate systems with long-range interactions that were previously puzzling to experts. These systems can be gases or ...

Artificial intelligence is already revolutionizing scientific and cosmological exploration. In a recent research breakthrough ...

In this episode of C&EN Uncovered, host Craig Bettenhausen speaks with C&EN assistant editor Ananya Palivela about recent advances in quantum computing. Ananya and Craig talk about the results of ...

We see countless stars and galaxies sparkling in the universe today, but how much matter is actually there? The question is simple enough — its answer, however, is turning out to be quite a ...

For scientists, supernovae are true superstars — massive explosions of huge, dying stars that shine light on the shape and fate of the universe. For a brief burst of time, supernovae can radiate more ...
