Every black hole contains a new universe: A physicist presents a solution to present-day cosmic mysteries
Our universe may exist inside a black hole. This may sound strange, but it could actually be the best explanation of how the universe began, and what we observe today. It's a theory that has been explored ...

Physicists develop theoretical framework for interpreting results of subatomic-particle collisions
Accelerating subatomic particles to almost the speed of light and then crashing them together reveals much about the nature of the matter. Nuclear physicists need to fully understand these complex collisions ...
