Physicists say they've found evidence in data from Europe's Large Hadron Collider for three never-before-seen combinations of quarks
Physicists observed a strange new type of behaviour in a magnetic material when it's heated up. The magnetic spins 'freeze' into a static pattern when the temperature rises.
A new study finds that artificial intelligence can devise ways to distribute wealth that are more common than systems designed by people.
In 'extreme environmental conditions' scientists have discovered 968 species featuring a hugely diverse range of microbes. Excitingly, 82 % of the genomes were novel species.
Astronauts lose decades' worth of bone mass in space and many do not recover even after a year back on Earth after their missions on the International Space Spation, - a new study finds.
On top of intensifying algal blooms and depleting oxygen, a new study reveals Earth's bodies of freshwater are also evaporating at a greater rate than we realized.
Australian scientists have created the world's first-ever quantum computer circuit – one that contains all the essential components found on a classical computer chip but at the quantum scale.
A year-round variety has a real cost on the planet, with a new study finding that 'food miles' account for 19 % of all food emissions – three times more than previously thought.
Astronomers have never seen one like this before: a galaxy in miniature, orbiting perilously close to the center of our own galaxy.
Two new worlds of probable rocky mineral goodness have just been found orbiting a star close to our own cosmic neighborhood.
We still don't know just how the first life emerged on Earth. One suggestion is that the building blocks arrived here from space; now, a new study of several carbon-rich meteorites has added weight to this idea.
Compared to most places you might wander in the Solar System, Titan, the giant moon of Saturn, is in many ways strangely familiar to Earth.
Dr Josef Schmid found himself beamed to the middle of the International Space Station, where he was able to enjoy a conversation with the astronauts and even shared a handshake.
Strange double ridges on the surface of Jupiter's ice moon Europa could be signposts to shallow reservoirs of water.
Scientists successfully produced the largest hybrid particles of light and matter ever created. These quasiparticles were made with the help of a piece of stone containing cuprous oxide crystals from an ancient deposit in Namibia.
