Spacetime defects uncouple gravity from mass in dark matter alternative

Something seems to be missing from the universe, and the favored model of physics calls it “dark matter” – but despite a century of searching, it remains a no-show. A new paper proposes an alternative hypothesis, showing how gravity could exist without… Continue reading Spacetime defects uncouple gravity from mass in dark matter alternative

Heat caught moving like sound waves in a superfluid for first time

Scientists at MIT have directly captured signs of “second sound” in a superfluid for the first time. This bizarre phenomenon occurs when heat moves like sound waves through an unusual state of matter.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Heat… Continue reading Heat caught moving like sound waves in a superfluid for first time
