A research team has investigated long-term X-ray variability in the neutron star NGC 7793 P13, an object thought to be driven ...

A British physicist says his quantised inertia "new physics" theory explains galaxy rotation without the need for dark matter, further justifying his earlier work proving how the EmDrive works iStock ...

Every dazzling jump on the ice—like Yuzuru Hanyu's quadruple Lutz at the 2017 Grand Prix of Figure Skating in Moscow, Russia—requires a mastery of balance, rotational speed and angular momentum. Aflo ...

A new type of gyroscope based on interfering atoms has been developed that can determine the latitude where the instrument is located – and also measure true north and the Earth’s rate of rotation.
