In physics, the conundrum known as the 'few-body problem,' how three or more interacting particles behave, has bedeviled scientists for centuries. Equations that describe the physics of few-body ...

While the existence of extra dimensions is a cool idea, it's currently not supported by any evidence ...

AALTO, Finland — Scientists have potentially solved what many consider physics’ most challenging problem – reconciling Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics, without adding any new ...

Researchers attempting to solve the problem of dark matter have proposed a particle that can travel to an unseen fifth dimension. The work is entirely hypothetical, as it attempts to explain a type of ...

Our standard model of elementary particles and forces has recently become as close to “complete” as we could conceivably ask for. Every single one of the elementary particles — in all their different ...

A new tool to break down and segment large data set problems and problems with many parameters in particle physics could have a wide range of applications. One of the major challenges in particle ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Did the early universe have just one spatial dimension? That's the mind-boggling concept at the heart of a theory that University at Buffalo physicist Dejan Stojkovic and colleagues ...
