New observations of a far-flung galaxy cluster have left a group of scientists stumped as they ponder whether they’ve discovered a new form of physics. In their new paper, researchers Tessa Vernstrom ...

LEWISBURG – There is a far-off planet that appears to have a magnetic field similar to Earth’s but it is too hot to support life, a Bucknell University professor says. The brightness of radio waves ...

Triggered by lightning in thunderstorms, whistler waves are radio waves that are channelled thousands of kilometres around the world via ducts in the magnetosphere. As Ian Randall reports, these ...

University of Otago physicists have used a small glass bulb containing an atomic vapor to demonstrate a new form of antenna for radio waves. The bulb was "wired up" with laser beams and could ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Antarctica’s vast ice sheet conceals a world of mysteries, from ancient river-carved landscapes to unexplained radio pulses. Cover ...

Instruments flying more than 18 miles (29 kilometers) above Antarctica detected two unexplainable radio pulses coming from below the ice — and these signals seem to defy particle physics. Researchers ...

The universe is awash with strange radio signals, but astronomers have now detected a really bizarre one that repeats every hour, cycling through three different states. While they have some ideas ...

Overview: In its 19th year, the SETI Institute’s Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) welcomed 12 students for summer 2025 to work alongside scientists on projects ranging from exoplanet ...

As drones survey forests, robots navigate warehouses and sensors monitor city streets, more of the world’s decision-making is occurring autonomously on the edge—on the small devices that gather ...

A new ultra-low-power method of communication at first glance seems to violate the laws of physics. It is possible to wirelessly transmit information simply by opening and closing a switch that ...

Brown dwarf stars rarely emit radio waves. Here scientists have found the coldest star yet emitting at these long wave lengths. Understanding the science of 'ultracool brown dwarfs' will help deepen ...
