In this episode we explore the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, a decades-long effort to build the most ambitious ...

Kellogg Stelle was a professor of physics at Imperial College London for decades until his death last month. In 1977, he developed a particle theory of gravity that’s renormalizable, but the theory’s ...

Yet according to physics, information is never destroyed. In principle, a burned book is just as readable as the original—if ...

When grown vertically into aligned arrays, known as nanotube “forests,” they form ideal channels for the corkscrewing laser ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, recorded the moment a star’s explosion broke through its surface. The nearby supernova, SN 2024ggi, revealed a surprisingly olive-shaped blast when studied with ...

Often referred to as the "God Particle," a nickname popularized by physicist Leon Lederman in his 1993 book The God Particle, the term was never meant to imply any religious significance. In fact, ...

Determining the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the greatest puzzles in physics. New results from the world’s most sensitive ...

This article explores the intriguing realm of particle physics with Vitrek’s comprehensive document on scattering experiments. Learn how incident particles strike targets, resulting in scattered ...
