Stephen Hawking's black hole radiation paradox could finally be solved — if black holes aren't what they seemNew research suggests that black holes may actually be "frozen stars," bizarre quantum objects that lack a singularity and an event horizon, potentially solving some of the biggest paradoxes in black hole physics.

Physicists find superconductor behavior at temperatures once thought 'impossible'Scientists have observed an unexpected new behavior in a superconducting material. If physicists can figure out the cause, it could help them to find room-temperature superconductors.

Time might be a mirage created by quantum physics, study suggestsPhysicists have struggled to understand the nature of time since the field began. But a new theoretical study suggests time could be an illusion woven at the quantum level.

Atoms squished closer together than ever before, revealing seemingly impossible quantum effectsUsing a clever laser technique, scientists have squished pairs of atoms closer together than ever before, revealing some truly mind-boggling quantum effects.

Stunning image shows atoms transforming into quantum waves — just as Schrödinger predictedA new imaging technique, which captured frozen lithium atoms transforming into quantum waves, could be used to probe some of the most poorly understood aspects of the quantum world.

Quantum mechanics: Definitions, axioms, and key concepts of quantum physicsReference Quantum mechanics, or quantum physics, is the body of scientific laws that describe the wacky behavior of photons, electrons and the other subatomic particles that make up the universe.

Tweak to Schrödinger's cat equation could unite Einstein's relativity and quantum mechanics, study hintsPhysicists have proposed modifications to the infamous Schrödinger's cat paradox that could help explain why quantum particles can exist in more than one state simultaneously, while large objects (like the universe) seemingly cannot.

Scientists made the coldest large molecule on record — and it has a super strange chemical bondA four-atom molecule has broken the record for coldest large molecule.

Physicists make record-breaking 'quantum vortex' to study the mysteries of black holesPhysicists created a 'quantum vortex,' which flows with 500 times less viscosity than water and could be used to study the space-time warping caused by black holes.
