This video demonstrates how to model rigid objects using springs in a Python physics simulation. We explore how spring forces approximate rigidity, analyze motion and stability, and visualize the ...

Nearly every galaxy has a supermassive black hole in its core. Whether the black hole forms first and then the galaxy around ...

British physicist Melvin Vopson proposes that gravity reduces information entropy, hinting that the universe may function ...

Unlike in year's past, there was no clear frontrunner for my favorite game of 2025, but plenty of good options ...

A research team at the Jülich Supercomputing Center, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record in quantum simulation: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits has ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

The idea that we’re living inside a simulation, as popularized by “The Matrix” franchise, has piqued the interest of scientists for decades. In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed in a highly ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

A team at the University at Buffalo has made it possible to simulate complex quantum systems without needing a supercomputer. By expanding the truncated Wigner approximation, they’ve created an ...

Bibek Chand is an associate professor in the Department of Political Science and International Affairs and the winner of a 2025 Teaching Excellence Award. Simulations are experiential learning tools ...
