OpenAI has launched FrontierScience, a new benchmark to assess expert-level AI scientific reasoning across physics, chemistry ...

For more than 40 years, physicist John Conway has led research in high-energy particle physics, a field driven by a simple ...

Sound is usually treated as the most familiar of physical phenomena, the background noise of daily life rather than a ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope report that a powerful gamma-ray burst detected in March may have been ...

OpenAI’s new FrontierScience benchmark shows AI advancing in physics, chemistry, and biology—and exposes the challenge of ...

Their work introduces a new concept called q-desics, short for quantum-corrected paths through space–time. These paths ...

Physicists have found a clever way to detect the elusive Unruh effect without extreme accelerations. By using atoms that emit light cooperatively between mirrors, acceleration subtly shifts when a ...

A new breakthrough in neutrino research has been achieved through observations made deep underground at the SNOLAB facility in Sudbury. For the first time, scientists have been able to discern the ...

Just as in-flight turbulence—irregular disruptions in the airflow—results in a bumpy plane ride, plasma turbulence transports ...

A live-streamed experiment puts rival AI systems in a shared digital house to see how they collaborate, clash and ...

One key component might be RNA, a molecular cousin of DNA found in every form of life on Earth, and now scientists say they ...

Australian researchers have played a central role in a landmark result from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment in South ...
