Hidden prompts buried in preprints show how easily large language models (LLMs) can be manipulated, exposing a deep vulnerability in science’s quality-control system. As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes part of the scientific review process, traceability and transparency must become new norms, not afterthoughts.

String theory was once hailed as the “theory of everything” — a unified model of nature built on tiny vibrating strings. But after decades of expansion, the field has evolved beyond its namesake, embracing branes, dualities, and abstract geometry. Some physicists now wonder: is it time to rename the theory entirely?

Artificial structures surrounding an entire star were thought to be impossible. A new calculation shows that they could be supported by the gravity of a second star.

New research suggests time symmetry in quantum systems, offering new perspectives and reigniting ongoing debates.

A new study maps all quantum correlations in the minimal Bell scenario, advancing our understanding of entanglement.

D-Wave claims quantum supremacy, but the physics community remains divided on its definition.

Ginestra Bianconi proposes that gravity emerges from quantum information entropy in new study.

Offering full-stack open access to its trapped-ion quantum computer, Open Quantum Design and its partners aim to push the field forward.

Two years after JWST's launch, it has rewritten the cosmic history books – and the best is yet to come.
