A new synthesis of seismic research shows that artificial intelligence, when combined with physical principles, is rapidly ...

The top of the bluff just south of the Torrey Pines Golf Course is a special place for those looking to take a leap off a cliff to fly. The combination of a cool ocean, hot land and a steep bluff make ...

There's a hole at the heart of quantum physics. It's a deep hole. Yet it's not a hole that prevents the theory from working. Quantum physics is, by any measure, astonishingly successful. It's the ...

Sorta sparked by this comment someone made to me but it's similar to what other people have told me before: I was listening to a lecture on quantum electrodynamics and it helped me conceptualize the ...

Breaking waves shape our coastlines, sink cruise ships and fishing vessels and play a crucial role in climate systems. Yet, despite decades of research, scientists have struggled to fully explain why ...
