New Black Hole Theory Challenges Singularity: What You Need to Know
A new study has put forward a black hole model that eliminates the central singularity, a concept that has long troubled physicists. Researchers suggest modifying Einstein’s field equations to prevent mathematical values from reaching infinity at a black hole’s core. This approach could reshape our understanding of gravity, black holes, and eve...

Scientists Unlock Quantum Control of Atomic Collisions at Warmer Temperatures
Scientists from the University of Warsaw and the Weizmann Institute of Science have demonstrated that atomic collisions can be controlled at temperatures beyond the ultracold regime. Previously, it was believed that quantum control weakens as kinetic energy increases. However, as per reports, unexpected order has been observed in rubidium-strontium...

Black Hole Singularities May Not Exist, Say Scientists
A new study questions the existence of black hole singularities, suggesting refinements to Einstein’s equations using quantum gravity concepts. Researchers argue that infinite density points may not be real, replacing them with highly curved but finite regions of space-time. While direct observation remains difficult, gravitational waves and earl...

Quantum Research Reveals Time May Not Always Move Forward
A new study on quantum systems suggests time might not always move forward. Researchers found that time-reversal symmetry persists in open quantum systems, challenging the traditional notion of a single directional arrow of time. The mathematical framework behind these interactions indicates that fundamental equations do not impose a distinction be...

Physicists Discover Singularities-Free Black Holes Using Pure Gravity
Physicists at ICCUB have mathematically proven that black holes can form without singularities, eliminating the need for exotic matter. The study, published in Physics Letters B, demonstrates that higher-order gravitational corrections alone can generate regular black holes. This breakthrough challenges previous models and provides new insights int...

Scientists Observe and Control Kelvin Waves in Superfluid Helium for the First Time
In a groundbreaking study, researchers have controlled and observed Kelvin waves in superfluid helium-4 for the first time. Using an electric field to manipulate nanoparticles trapped in vortex lines, they generated and visualised the helical motion of these quantum waves. This discovery sheds light on energy dissipation in superfluid systems and o...

Underwater Neutrino Telescopes Installed in Mediterranean to Study Cosmic Mysteries
Neutrino telescopes have been deployed in the Mediterranean Sea as part of the KM3NeT project to study high-energy cosmic particles. The project aims to detect neutrinos, elusive subatomic particles emitted from space, by using large underwater detectors. These detectors, consisting of glass spheres with photomultiplier tubes, are suspended in the ...

MIT Researchers Measure Quantum Geometry of Electrons in Solid Materials for First Time
Physicists at MIT have successfully measured the quantum geometry of electrons in solids, marking a pivotal moment in quantum research. This was achieved using an advanced adaptation of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), enabling direct observation of quantum properties that were previously theoretical. The study, featured in Nature...

Semi-Dirac Fermions Found in ZrSiS: Quasiparticles with Directional Mass Behavior
Researchers at Penn State and Columbia University identified semi-Dirac fermions, quasiparticles theorized 16 years ago, in ZrSiS crystals. These particles are massless in one direction but have mass in another. The findings, published in Physical Review X, were made using magneto-optical spectroscopy at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory....
