Fundamental interactions, also known as fundamental forces, are the interactions in physical systems that do not appear to be reducible to more basic interactions. Much like the periodic table of ...

Quantum computing has crossed a line that classical machines cannot easily follow, pushing simulations of matter and forces ...

Researchers used IBM’s quantum computers to create scalable quantum circuits that simulate matter under extreme conditions, offering new insight into fundamental forces and the origins of the universe ...

Scientists are investigating the existence of hidden dimensions in our universe, which could potentially revolutionize our ...

The story opens with a scene both familiar and deceptively simple: physicists once again interrogating the fabric of reality, ...

In recent years, a group of Hungarian researchers have made headlines with a bold claim. They say they’ve discovered a new particle — dubbed X17 — that requires the existence of a fifth force of ...

As far as we know, at the most basic level, the universe is made up of fundamental particles and controlled by four fundamental forces. The Standard Model explains these fundamental particles and ...

There may be a fifth fundamental force of the universe that we haven’t documented yet — and, according to new research, our best bet of uncovering it may not lie in deep space, but in objects ...

Although physics may seem complicated to the uninitiated (or even to the trained professional, for that matter), it’s worth remembering that physics deals with only four known forces: gravity (which ...

Why is Christian Science in our name? Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and we’ve always been transparent about that. The church publishes the ...
