A fresh draft deal published at the deadlocked COP29 climate talks shows rich and poor countries still divided. Fierce bargaining at UN climate talks in Azerbaijan dragged into Saturday after a $250 billion a year offer from rich nations was flatly refused by developing countries hardest hit by Earth’s rapid warming. Negotiators from nearly 200 […]

In the world of quantum physics, another record appears to have just been broken. In a paper listed on the preprint site ArXiv, researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China claim to have observed atoms in a state of quantum superposition for 23 minutes. Being able to keep quantum states stable for […]
You don’t have to know how a car engine works to drive a car — but you can bet all the drivers in the Indy 500 have a better than average understanding of what’s going on under the hood. All of our understanding of electronics hinges on Maxwell’s equations, but not many people know them. […]

With its distinctive crimson claws, it was only natural the crab was given the scientific name Strigopagurus fragarchela, which is derived from the Latin form “strawberry” (Fragaria), combined with “chela” to highlight the bright […]
As an example, AAPT’s most recent DigiKit publication, Auroral Currents Science (Figure 1), was developed for educators of advanced high school students and university physics/astronomy majors. DigiKits materials are collected by digital content specialist, Caroline Hall, who searches for high-quality, open digital content and checks it for accuracy and accessibility. The Auroral Currents DigiKit centers […]
“It provides a natural framework, or a bookkeeping mechanism, to assemble very large numbers of Feynman diagrams,” said Marcus Spradlin, a physicist at Brown University who has been picking up the new tools of surfaceology. “There’s an exponential compactification in information.” Carolina Figueiredo, a graduate student at Princeton University, noticed a striking coincidence where three […]
A diagram shows one way the curtains could prevent warm seawater from reaching the terminus of the glacier. Credit: Nature (2024). DOI: 10.1038/d41586-024-00119-3 New studies about the Thwaites Glacier, also called the “Doomsday Glacier,” have sparked a conversation about geoengineering as a climate change solution. One study published in May and led by University of […]
