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

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
