Battle of the Big Bang provides an entertaining update on the collective obsessions and controlled schizophrenias in cosmology, writes Will Kinney.

Enrique Rico Ortega and Sofia Vallecorsa explain how quantum computing will allow physicists to model complex dynamics, from black-hole evaporation to neutron-star interiors.

David Wallace argues for the ‘decoherent view’ of quantum mechanics, where at the fundamental level there is neither probability nor wavefunction collapse.

The ATLAS and ALICE collaborations have announced the first results of a new way to measure the “radial flow” of quark–gluon plasma.

New Frontiers in Science in the Era of AI arrives with a clear mission: to contextualise AI within the long arc of scientific thought and current research frontiers.

Mary K Gaillard, a key figure in the development of the Standard Model of particle physics, passed away on 23 May 2025.

Kanta Dihal explores why quantum mechanics captures the imagination of writers – and how ‘quantum culture’ affects the public understanding of science.

Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use extreme environments as precise laboratories for fundamental physics.

The CMS collaboration jointly analysed all vector boson scattering channels.

Advances in Very High Energy Astrophysics summarises the progress made by the third generation of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes.
