What does quark-gluon plasma—the hot soup of elementary particles formed a few microseconds after the Big Bang—have in common with tap water? Scientists say it's the way it flows. A new study, ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A supercomputer simulation of the "primordial soup" has revealed that its inner structure is surprisingly complex. When our ...

The universe we live in and everything in it burst into existence roughly 13.8 billion years ago. In its infancy, the cosmos was filled with a dense primordial “soup” of quark-gluon plasma, which, as ...

Comparing the number of direct photons emitted when proton spins point in opposite directions (top) with the number emitted when protons collide head-to-tail (bottom) revealed that gluon spins align ...

Solid as a rock, liquid like the seas, or gas like the air we breathe: everything on earth exists in these three states. But most of the universe is not like this. The stars are so hot that the atoms ...

Neutron stars are among the densest objects in the Uiverse. If our Sun, with its radius of 700,000 kilometres were a neutron star, its mass would be condensed into an almost perfect sphere with a ...
