AI Just Discovered New Physics in a "Fourth State of Matter"

Source: Science Daily - Top News Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover new laws of nature. By combining a specialized neural network with precise 3D tracking of particles in a dusty plasma—a strange "fourth state of matter" found from space to wildfires—the team revealed hidden patterns in how particles interact. Their model captured complex forces with over 99% accuracy and overturned long-held assumptions about how...
