No joke: Large Hadron Collider shut down by speck of bread | DVICEHere's one for the books. CERN's Large Hadron Collider has once again been shut down. No catastrophic helium leak or failing magnets this time. The culprit? A speck of bread, which officials believe was originally part of a larger baguette. To make it all the more ridiculous, it's thought that ...

Rapid supernova could be new class of exploding starArtist's impression of an AM-CVn star system, where helium flows from one star, a helium white dwarf (upper right), onto another, piling up in an accretion disk around a small, dense primary star. Helium from the disk eventually falls onto the star, forming a shell that may end up exploding as a ...

Gamma-ray photon race ends in dead heat; Einstein wins this roundRacing across the universe for the last 7.3 billion years, two gamma-ray photons arrived at NASA's orbiting Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope within nine-tenths of a second of one another. The dead-heat finish may stoke the fires of debate among physicists over Einstein's special theory of ...

World's fastest supercomputer models the unseen universe | DVICEIt's hard to tell what the universe looks like, especially since it takes billions of years for the light from most of it to reach us. It's even more difficult to visualize the 70% of the matter in the universe that's invisible. That's why scientists bring out the heavy iron, IBM Roadrunner, ...
