To address unknown quantum gravitational effects in the early universe, physicists have recruited string theory to help solve the problem.
Results for "Standard Model"
Footprints of phase transitions in the early universe
Gravitational waves produced by the phase transitions of matter right after the Big Bang could provide new insights into particle physics.
Scientists have measured neutrino mass with record-breaking accuracy
Scientists have constrained the mass of neutrinos to less than 1 eV for the first time, breaking an important barrier in neutrino physics.
What scientists hope to learn with the new James Webb Space Telescope
The new James Webb Space Telescope will collect infrared light from distant corners of the cosmos, enabling scientists to see further than ever before.

Understanding Resistive Switching [Video]
Resistive switching occurs when a dielectric suddenly changes its resistance in the presence of a strong electric field. This phenomenon underpins the behavior of devices such as memristors and neuromorphic memories. In Advanced Materials, Prof. Manfred Martin of...
Carbon Footprints: Topsoil pH Predicts Organic Carbon Content
Researchers have determined the extent to which pH can predict soil organic carbon density depending upon the nature of the land use.
Two-dimensional materials: electronic structure and many-body effects
Special issue, guest-edited by F. Guinea, M. I. Katsnelson, and T. O. Wehling, is focused on electronic structure and other properties of 2D materials.
