Right now, molecules in the air are moving around you in chaotic and unpredictable ways. To make sense of such systems, physicists use a law known as the Boltzmann distribution, which, rather than ...

Despite decades of independent progress in population ecology and movement ecology, researchers have lacked a theoretical ...

What will happen when I put more weight in the buckets?

To reach this conclusion, the researchers examined the most basic form of entanglement between identical particles using the concept of nonlocality introduced by physicist John Bell. While ...

Mechanical Riverfront Kingdom stands out as Georgias most imaginative sculpture garden with whimsical creations riverside paths and a playful atmosphere ...

The Great Pyramid has always invited audacious explanations, from alien architects to supernatural levitation. Now a cluster of new engineering studies is pushing aside the fringe ideas and replacing ...

Tabloids have seized on the most headline-friendly takeaway - “pulleys built the pyramid” - but the underlying claim is more specific: the pyramid may have grown “inside-out,” using internal sloped ...

Scientists have proposed a groundbreaking new theory on how Egypt’s Great Pyramid was built, positing that they used a pulley ...
