In the strange corner of modern physics where spacetime itself becomes the engine, the old rule that nothing can outrun light ...

For more than a century, modern physics has rested on two towering frameworks that do not quite agree with each other.

If you drop a light object and a heavy object from a tower, which one reaches the ground first? As you may recall from high school physics, this is a trick question. Neglecting air resistance, they ...

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. In this 2018 photo made available by CERN, Nikolai Bondar works on the LHCb Muon system at the European Organization for Nuclear ...

Over the years, CETUP* workshop, held over four weeks during the summer in the Black Hills of South Dakota at SURF, has ...

Argonne’s solenoid facility provides powerful magnetic fields for testing. A limiting factor in modern physics experiments is the precision at which scientists can measure important values, such as ...

For the first time, physicists have used lasers to deep-freeze antimatter. In a new experiment, an ultraviolet laser quelled the thermal jitters of antihydrogen atoms, chilling the antiatoms to just ...

Just a few hundred feet from where we are sitting is a large metal chamber devoid of air and draped with the wires needed to control the instruments inside. A beam of particles passes through the ...

No one can question the impact of science on human civilization, and the importance of experimentation in science is equally undeniable. Some experiments confirm what we already know, others suggest a ...

According to the program, its events have impacted more than 300,000 people, including individuals from underrepresented groups who had the chance to experience physics in a new and engaging way. The ...
