Physicists successfully eliminate imaginary numbers from quantum mechanics equations while preserving all theoretical predictions, overturning 2021 studies that claimed complex numbers were essential to the field, though the elegant mathematical beauty of imaginary numbers continues to puzzle scientists about their natural fit with quantum reality.
Physicists confront cosmic puzzles as dark matter experiments yield no particles, prompting theories like 'fuzzy dark matter' waves affecting galaxies or entropy-based gravity models that negate the need for dark matter, reshaping our understanding of the universe.
Scientists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider accidentally achieved the medieval alchemists' dream of transmuting lead into gold, albeit temporarily and on an infinitesimal scale, by colliding lead nuclei at near light speed.
