From one hour of study for a thekua to changing how India learns Physics: How HC Verma went from a struggling student in Bihar to a teacher millions turned to
H C Verma is one of the most recognised names in Physics education in India. For years, there…
A millionth of a second after the Big Bang, matter existed as a near-perfect liquid so hot that protons and neutrons could not yet form—and CERN has now recreated a microscopic droplet of it using oxygen nuclei, the smallest collision system yet to reveal one of its defining signatures.
During the universe’s first few microseconds, temperatures were too high for quarks and gluons to remain confined inside…
Quantum interference offers a radically different way to measure time
A new “quantum watch” uses changing interference patterns inside excited helium atoms to determine how much time has…
Scientists catch a laser beam pushing an atom sideways for first time
A spinning table-tennis ball can suddenly bend away from its expected path. This is called the Magnus effect. …
Claude-trained controller fixes quantum computer laser drift in seconds
A quantum computer can have hundreds of qubits, but one drifting laser can still bring the whole machine…
European scientists create ‘little Big Bang’ to study the universe’s origins
Scientists in Europe have recreated a “little” version of what the universe may have looked like right after…
IBM quantum computer solves classically intractable problem in 15 minutes
Scientists used a new error correction strategy to encode 70 logical qubits and tackle a problem considered classically…

Physicists predicted in 1936 that a powerful magnetic field could turn empty space into a kind of prism — and on August 5, 2026, observations of a magnetar with a field more than a trillion times Earth’s produced the strongest evidence yet that they were right.
About 13,000 light-years away, give or take the spread in astronomical distance estimates, a stellar remnant is turning…
Việt Nam looks to move from quantum ‘back end’ to core technology
Researchers at Phenikaa University work in a laboratory as Việt Nam expands its research and training capacity in…
The universe may contain a staggering 40 quintillion black holes
Astronomers estimate that about 40 quintillion stellar-mass black holes exist within the observable universe, a number written as…
