A new research paper reframes the simulation hypothesis, asking whether reality could be simulated and what science can test.

Right at the brink of a black hole, gravity twists space and time so violently that ordinary physics starts to fall apart.

Some of the brightest beacons in the universe share one hidden engine: matter falling into a black hole. As gas whirls inward, it heats up and shines. In some cases, it also blasts narrow beams of ...

June 19, 2025: The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility posted an update on the use of the Frontier exascale-class supercomputer’s role in materials simulations to make carbon fiber stronger and ...

At its annual flagship user event, Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDNS) on Wednesday announced a significant expansion of its Cadence Millennium Enterprise Platform with the introduction of the ...

Gravity used to be the most down-to-earth of ideas, the thing that kept apples falling and planets in line. Now a growing ...

At the air-water interface, a negatively charged amino acid carries out a nucleophile attack on a gas molecule to convert it into a product. The reaction rate is enhanced due to significant reduction ...

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) are partnering with Germany’s Leibniz Supercomputing Centre to build a new supercomputer. Nvidia said the supercomputer called Blue Lion is ...

To understand the mysteries surrounding black holes, researchers at Tohoku University have created a simulation of accretion disk turbulence that possesses the highest-resolution currently available.
