Physicists have spent decades treating mass as something the universe simply hands to particles, a property encoded in equations rather than explained from first principles. A new proposal argues that ...

Artificial intelligence has moved from crunching physics data in the background to actively proposing new theories and experiments. The hope is that these systems might finally expose cracks in the ...

AI labs like OpenAI claim that their so-called “reasoning” AI models, which can “think” through problems step by step, are more capable than their non-reasoning counterparts in specific domains, such ...

Modeling the Dynamics of Life: New Frontiers in Biological Physics and Mechanics is a special Collection of the npj Biological Physics and Mechanics journal, dedicated to the development and ...

A case study in aerospace manufacturing provides an overview of how physics-informed digital twin systems transform robotics processes—from adaptive process planning and real-time process monitoring ...
