A groundbreaking study reveals how neurons sense and transmit mechanical forces across their membranes—a key to understanding touch, movement, and development.

Does dark matter follow the same laws as ordinary matter? The mystery of this invisible and hypothetical component of our ...

A team led by UNIGE has shown that the most mysterious component of our Universe follows the laws of classical physics, though some doubts still remain. Does dark matter obey the same physical laws as ...

There may be a fifth fundamental force of the universe that we haven’t documented yet — and, according to new research, our best bet of uncovering it may not lie in deep space, but in objects ...

This looks like something out of a video game, but it's for real. Some parkour masters can scale a building by jumping back and forth between two facing vertical surfaces, zigzagging upward. Seriously ...

There are few sports more exciting than playoff baseball, but behind every pitch there is also a fascinating story of physics ...

Particle physics describes the universe at the smallest scale. This includes subatomic particles, like protons and neutrons, as well as elementary particles, like quarks and electrons, which make up ...

The method, developed by researchers at the State University of Campinas in Brazil, uses images of dune surfaces to estimate ...

The strongest force in the universe is called, aptly, the strong force. We never get to witness its fearsome power because it works only across subatomic distances, where it binds quarks together ...
