In one of the most memorable interviews of my career thus far, I was at my desk, head in my hands, talking on the phone to a physicist about extra dimensions. I was trying to understand what it means ...

At the start of February, OpenAI upgraded its Codex coding app to give it the ability to manage multiple AI agents. At the same time, it released a standalone macOS app. If you've been patiently ...

Neutral-atom arrays are a rapidly emerging platform to create quantum computers. In a foundational study led by graduate students Aaron Holman and Yuan Xu from the Will and Yu labs, respectively, the ...

Orbital angular momentum, as an important spatial degree of freedom of light, has prompted various promising applications. The recently proposed generalized vortex beams may further enhance the ...

A new theory proposes that the universe’s fundamental forces and particle properties may arise from the geometry of hidden extra dimensions. These dimensions could twist and evolve over time, forming ...

Once synonymous with monotony, “prefabricated” buildings often bring to mind the gray, repetitive housing blocks of the postwar era. But that image no longer fits today’s reality. Powered by digital ...

In 1919, physicist Theodor Kaluza hypothesized that extra dimensions might solve some outstanding problems in physics. And while we haven't found any evidence yet for anything outside our normal ...
