MIT physicists have built a powerful new microscope that uses terahertz light to uncover hidden quantum motions inside superconductors. By compressing this normally unwieldy light into a tiny region, ...

A physics professor at the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology was shot and killed inside his Brookline home, authorities said. Brookline police responded to a report of a man shot at a ...

The two young men were peers, brilliant aspiring scientists working toward a degree at Portugal’s most prestigious engineering school, a white building at the top of a grassy plaza in Lisbon. A ...

What steps can be taken to mitigate lightning strikes on future aircraft designs? This is what a recent study published in IEEE Access hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated new ...

A Vietnamese student who won gold at the 2025 International Physics Olympiad has been admitted to MIT, marking a milestone ...

MIT physicists and colleagues have created a five-lane superhighway for electrons that could allow ultra-efficient electronics and more. The work, reported in the May 9 issue of Science, is one of ...

MIT physicists have shown that it should be possible to create an exotic form of matter that could be manipulated to form the qubit (quantum bit) building blocks of future quantum computers that are ...

The suspect in the shooting Saturday at Brown University that killed two students and injured nine was found dead in a New Hampshire storage unit, authorities announced Thursday night. The same man ...

Curiosity-driven research has long sparked technological transformations. A century ago, curiosity about atoms led to quantum mechanics, and eventually the transistor at the heart of modern computing.
