Mathematicians’ Favorite Shapes Hold the Key to Big Mathematical Mysteries ...

The May issue of Scientific American takes you on a deep-sea mining mission, explores dark comets and examines an invisible ...

New three-dimensional (3D) models of objects in space have been released by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. These 3D models ...

The surface area of a cuboid can be calculated by adding together the areas of the six faces. The opposite faces of a cuboid are the same sized rectangles, so find the total area of the three ...

described six-dimensional geometrical shapes that superstring theorists say fit the bill for the kind of structures their equations call for. If we replace the spheres in curled-up space with ...

Researchers at the Institute of Visual Computing at Graz University of Technology have made it possible to remove objects ...

A mathematical problem solved by Susanna Heikkilä relates to the classification of quasiregularly elliptic 4-manifolds, asking what four-dimensional shapes can be obtained by deforming four ...
