And a simple granular physics model, normally used for the deposition of grains like sand or sugar, could predict the observed shape. The press release includes this fabulous description: Imagine ...

Using a simple physics-based model for testing, they attributed the phenomenon to seasonal changes in incoming solar radiation, or sunlight.

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

The software model, named Physics Learning through Auto-encoding and Tracking Objects (PLATO), was fed the raw images from the videos, but also versions that highlighted each object in the scene.

The simpler model still meets the established requirements for a robust unified gravity theory. Even if this theory does not prove revolutionary, it shows that new ways of thinking are possible.
