DARK SECRETS: Science physics | Vintage Vibes

Meet Rachel Chen, 18, who won $100K for her breakthrough quantum math research using simple diagrams

Rachel Chen, an 18-year-old Los Angeles student, won $100,000 at the Regeneron Science Talent Search for expanding a 1997 mathematical idea involving Temperley-Lieb diagrams. Her research offers a visual way to describe complex quantum particle systems and spin representations, potentially helping researchers better understand connections between different quantum-mechanical states.

Inside California’s 3-kilometre straight corridor: The 40-minute walk through the Klystron Gallery that never curves

On a patch of California land that looks, at first glance, like a low industrial sprawl, a single straight building runs for miles without changing direction. It doesn’t rise into the sky, it doesn’t curve into architectural showmanship, and it doesn’t really behave like a place designed for people to…

'One of the great unresolved embarrassments of physics': It's been 340 years since Newton and scientists still haven't solved the secret of gravity

Big G is the oldest fundamental constant in physics and remains the least clearly defined. One scientist has spent a decade attempting to crack the mystery of the gravitational constant, and it all came down to the opening of a single envelope.
