Physics
Let there be light, sound, fluids and quantum weirdness
We love physics in all its forms, from new research on mind-bending concepts like quantum weirdness and spooky action at a distance to the science of sounds and fluids to all the forces that push, pull, stick and slip. Here we tackle the macroscopic, the subatomic, the strange, the cool, the groundbreaking and the obscure.
Inside Science explores an emerging, quantum-powered technological revolution.
In this interview, Nicole Yunger Halpern describes her effort to tie quantum physics to the retro-futuristic steampunk genre.
A new study looks at the tiny changes that happen when something goes from wet to dry -- and ponders bigger questions.
Recent observations at high temperatures and extreme pressures tantalize, but not all experts are convinced.
In this episode of Inside Science Conversations Hakeem Oluseyi talks about how he fell in love with science.
Finding these particles would confirm there are laws of nature beyond the Standard Model of physics, say the researchers.
A new paper hypothesizes how the amount of dark matter could have grown exponentially in the early universe.
A mystery that captivated the internet has a simple answer. At least, that’s what Colgate says.

Giorgio Parisi’s work, which won him a share of the 2021 Nobel Prize in physics, has a surprisingly wide range of applications.
Scientists need to pin down the lifetime to better understand fundamental physics questions, like how the universe evolved.
Physicists say a universal theory that describes everything from light reflecting in tea cups to black holes can explain why apples have a dip at the top.
