Physicists are still trying to prove decades-old theories. One theorist argues for why the best answers may not come until scientists embrace messier math.
You told us which physics concept has always stumped you. Two physicists weighed in.

Those leaps and spins are a physics demonstration in action.
A graphic novel that addresses the quantum questions vexing physicists today. And the ecosystem of frozen soil.
There is a lot we still do not know about matter, time, and the contents of the universe. That is both a challenge and a thrill for physicists. Plus, the health effects of a a busy urban road.

There’s a lot we still don’t know about matter, time, and the contents of the universe. Why that’s a challenge…and a thrill for physicists.
Scientists are developing tools that allow you to digitally feel textures like wood and cotton. Plus, a walks through Martin Gardner’s 1950s catalog of pseudoscientific ideas. And, a lesson in the physics of this summer’s blockbuster superhero stunts.
Physicists have observed subatomic particles decaying in a way that does not jibe with the predictions of the Standard Model, suggesting, if the results are correct, that there could be undiscovered particles at play. Plus, the fascinating story of the air we breathe and the gases that have shaped human history.
