Experimental particle physicists working at the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory have found ...
Particle and nuclear physics evokes evokes images of huge accelerators probing the extremes of matter. But in this round-up ...
A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...
Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...
"Dark photon" theory says light's interference patterns may emerge from quantum particles, not waves, upending centuries of ...
A photon was apparently detected in two places at once in a twist on the classic double-slit experiment, but many physicists ...
A new quantum physics experiment just lent evidence to a mind-boggling idea that was previously limited to the realm of theory, according to the MIT Technology Review — that under the right conditions ...
A group of scientists created "slits" in time, allowing them to send light through the slits in a twist on an experiment first run over 200 years ago. In the original experiment, scientists sent light ...
ANN ARBOR, Mich.–The results of a high-profile Fermilab physics experiment involving a University of Michigan professor appear to confirm strange 20-year-old findings that poke holes in the standard ...
Physicists often find thrifty, ingenious ways to reuse equipment and resources. What do you do with 800 square feet of scintillator from an old physics experiment? Cut it up and give it to high ...
The most beautiful experiment in physics, according to a poll of Physics World readers, is the interference of single electrons in a Young’s double slit. Robert P Crease reports Simply beautiful – the ...
Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...
