Can we do away with the troublesome singularity at the heart of black holes? A new paper in JCAP reimagines these extreme objects in light of current knowledge. “Hic sunt leones,” remarks Stefano ...

Over at the Physics And Cake blog, there’s a great discussion of exactly how machines will replace theoretical physicists, with their only goal being to create a perfect model of the universe, and no ...

Three physicists have proposed a modification to Einstein’s general relativity that, if confirmed, could eliminate the singularity at the origin of the universe. By adding higher-curvature terms to ...

Figure 1：Magnetic-field-driven superconductor-metal phase transition with multiple quantum critical points in CaFe 1-x Ni x AsF. Exploration of exotic quantum phase transitions has always been a focus ...

Physicists have experimentally confirmed a strange prediction: the dark “holes” inside light waves can appear to move faster ...

In the world of artificial intelligence, the idea of “singularity” looms large. This slippery concept describes the moment AI exceeds beyond human control and rapidly transforms society. The tricky ...
