Using a simplified model, researchers determined the delay with which information emerges from behind the cosmological horizon. Quantum particles born near the horizon carry data not instantly: first, a characteristic time passes — roughly 1/8 of the horizon’s traversal period. This discovery helps

Ordinary heat engines can't be both powerful and maximally efficient: upping power increases losses. New research describes a quantum engine on a superconducting chip, where many quantum systems synchronize like fireflies in a forest, bypassing the classic trade-off. This paves the way to energy-sav

Researchers assessed the capability of the space-based gravitational-wave observatory LISA (launch in 2035) to detect ultralight dark matter interacting with Standard Model fields via quadratic coupling—a common mechanism in axion and dilaton models. Through this interaction, the signal emerges on t

The mysterious force accelerating the universe turns out to be fickle. In a new model, dark energy is like steam that partially condenses into 'droplets' when cooled. Massive galaxy clusters act as refrigerators, their gravity creating pressure differences. This solves recent anomalies in supernova

Astronomers have discovered that gas density in nebulae can't be described by a single number. Each measurement method only responds to the density range it is sensitive to. This resolves a long-standing contradiction and calls for recalculating masses and energies in star-forming regions.

Is the Universe accelerating its expansion—or not? The latest DESI survey, combined with Planck cosmic microwave background data, yields no clear answer for the current epoch, unlike older SDSS data.

The LHAASO observatory detected an extended gamma-ray source — the Cygnus Bubble — and new calculations show that it was spawned by the microquasar Cygnus X-3. Particles accelerated in the jets to tens of PeV diffuse into the surrounding medium and, upon colliding with gas, produce gamma-ray photons

The Mpemba effect, known from kitchen experiments with water, is reimagined in a quantum model.

In dense globular clusters, frequent collisions of massive stars lead to the formation of rapidly rotating blue supergiants. Simulations show that when the mass ratio of the components exceeds 0.3, the merger product does not expand into a red supergiant and retains its angular momentum. The collaps

Observations by the Chandra space observatory set a record-low upper limit on X-ray luminosity for the periodic radio pulse source PSR J0901-4046.
