This month marks the centenary of the publication of Erwin Schrödinger’s science paper that changed the world forever by upturning centuries of understanding about the nature of matter and the way the ...

Most of the exoplanets we’ve discovered have been in relatively tight orbits around their host stars, allowing us to track them as they repeatedly loop around them. But we’ve also discovered a handful ...

Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to disprove the quantum mechanical principle of complementarity put forth by ...

“Biotechnology is a high-risk field like a ‘molecular casino’,” said founder Alex Zhavoronkov. “Even with artificial intelligence, you can lose 90 per cent of the time.” The 11-year-old company was ...

In an unprecedented step, researchers crafted a detailed model compatible with the universe’s accelerated expansion.
