Does exercise during a diet cause weight gain instead of loss?
When starting strength training, muscles are exposed to stress they are not used to, and the body begins recovering and accumulating fluids. So does exercise cause weight gain?
Pakistani physics gold medalist’s death sparks fraud investigation over fake US scholarship
Wolf Foundation, Herzog announce 2026 Wolf Prize Laureates in medicine, physics, chemistry, math
Scientists identify nearby 'super-Earth' as promising candidate in search for alien life - study
Reaffirmed anomaly could lead to innovations in standard model physics
Despite the reaffirmation, many other neutrino experiments have mysteriously failed to replicate the anomalous results.
New time crystal experiment may open new horizons in quantum computing
A time crystal is a phase of matter which repeats in time, similar to how a regular crystal's structure repeats in space.
NASA: Universe expansion is 'weird,' scientists unsure why - study
Why is the universe expanding so quickly? Scientists don't know, and there's a chance that it might be that there are physics at work that we have yet to understand.
World's most powerful heavy-ion accelerator to open in Michigan
A community of 1,600 scientists from around the world will use the accelerator to study how the universe formed.
CERN's Large Hadron Collider returns to service after 3-year hiatus
Four years of physics-data taking are set to begin this summer at the LHC, marking the third run of the collider.
A tiny change in a particle's mass could shake the world of physics
A new precise measurement of the W boson's mass creates a huge buzz as it could force a new approach to the Standard Model of particle physics.
Hebrew University discovers new magnetic phenomenon - study
The discovery ultimately relied on images produced by a new type of magnetic microscopy developed in Israel, which can measure the magnetic field of a single electron
New simulation is largest, most detailed model of early universe
Named after the Etruscan goddess of the dawn, the "Thesan" model will help scientists study the complex environment of the young universe.
Scientists discover new solar waves that don't fit with current theories
The newly discovered waves move three times faster than current theories predict.
For the first time, time crystals survive outside the lab
University of California researchers use light to allow recently-discovered "time crystals" to be more stable.
