Sometimes the universe is just too complicated to analyze. Heck, if you take a tennis ball and toss it across the room, even that is practically too complicated. After it leaves your hand, the ball ...

The rapid retreat of sea ice in Antarctica can be explained by the "simple physics" of the sun's melting powers, according to a new study. Heat from the sun could explain why ice around the South Pole ...

Sea ice around Antarctica retreats more quickly than it advances, an asymmetry that has been a puzzle. New analysis shows that the Southern Hemisphere is following simple rules of physics, as peak ...

Teaching artificial intelligence to understand simple physics concepts, such as that one solid object can’t occupy the same space as another, could lead to more capable software that takes less ...

In December, the publishing group Physics World recognized a work by physics researchers from the Yale Wright Laboratory as one of its 2024 top ten physics breakthroughs. The acclimated experiment, ...

The Universe should not exist. At least, not according to simple physics. After the Big Bang, equal parts matter and antimatter should have formed, then wiped each other out in flashes of energy.
