The currents of the oceans, the roiling surface of the sun, and the clouds of smoke billowing off a forest fire—all are ...

A research team from the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (AIRCAS) has developed a ...

The team used an AI method known as equation discovery to develop a model to simulate the interactions between small eddies—circular, vortex-like currents—and large-scale ones. These interactions are ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from crunching physics data in the background to actively proposing new theories and ...

In a new paper published in eLight, a team of scientists led by Professor Bahram Jalali and graduate student Callen MacPhee from UCLA have developed a new algorithm for performing computational ...

Scientists from the University of Bristol's Quantum Engineering Technology Labs (QETLabs) have developed an algorithm that provides valuable insights into the physics underlying quantum systems -- ...

The rise of quantum computing and its implications for current encryption standards are well known. But why exactly should quantum computers be especially adept at breaking encryption? The answer is a ...

Thomas Gehrmann remembers the deluge of mathematical expressions that came cascading down his computer screen one day 20 years ago. He was trying to calculate the odds that three jets of elementary ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

In 1930, a young physicist named Carl D. Anderson was tasked by his mentor with measuring the energies of cosmic ...
