Recent research by Dr. Jon Hakkila and team, from The University of Alabama in Huntsville, aimed to decipher the enigmatic behavior of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), cosmic phenomena emitting immense energy.
Scientists from the National Astronomical Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC) and international collaborators have developed a new method to analyze data from galaxy surveys, allowing them to extract more information about the universe's structure and dark matter/energy. Their findings were published in Communications Physics.
Researchers propose that the Barrow entropy correction should be minimal to maintain thermodynamic stability in black holes, with potential exceptions at the Planckian regime. They demonstrate through theoretical analysis that the entropy correction must remain small to prevent black hole fragmentation, offering insights into entropy modifications and their implications for fundamental physics.

In a study published in the journal, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, a team of international researchers has created the first high-resolution map of an enormous explosion in the neighboring galaxy NGC 4383, which will provide light on how elements contaminate the space between galaxies.
An international group of researchers, led by Philip Walther of the University of Vienna, has made a significant advance in quantum technology by successfully demonstrating quantum interference among multiple single photons utilizing a unique resource-efficient platform.
Researchers investigated the feasibility of leveraging emerging quantum computers for radio astronomy calibration, focusing on redundant baseline calibration. They explored quantum annealers (QAs) and variational quantum linear solvers (VQLSs) for this task, considering both ideal and realistic settings.

This paper proposes that observers entangled with measurement possibilities cannot rely on standard predictions, extending the concept of measurement disturbance to the observers themselves. This argument challenges conventional interpretations of quantum mechanics and addresses the role of observers within the theory.

Superconductors are able to conduct high electrical currents with no resistance at all. When there is too much current, for example, they cannot conduct currents without resistance.
By observing the X-Ray emission from the astrospheres of three Sun-like stars, an international research team led by a University of Vienna researcher has successfully detected the stellar winds from these stars for the first time, and they have also placed limits on the mass loss rate of the stars through their stellar winds
