The U.S. is slashing funding for scientific research, after decades of deep investment. Here’s some of what those taxpayer dollars created.
Konstantin Vodopyanov, a professor at the College of Sciences and CREOL, the College of Optics and Photonics, recently ...
Finding out whether gravity – and therefore space-time itself – is quantum in nature has long been thought impossible. But ...
The idea was first hypothesized about 70 years ago. In a bizarre repercussion of Albert Einstein's Special Theory of ...
Colliding beams of lead create fast-moving, short-lived gold ions. Understanding the process could help to refine ...
In this video, I dive into 6 real science experiments that came dangerously close to destroying the world as we know it. From nuclear tests to particle collisions, these events prove that pushing ...
April 14, 1932 was a day that transformed subatomic physics forever as a lithium atom was split using a proton beam. A.S.Ganesh tells you more about the first accelerator-based physics experiment, ...
These 4D sensors enable more precise tracking of particle events, supporting the development of advanced instrumentation for future high-intensity particle physics experiments. This summary was ...
This is a significant step toward developing advanced detectors for future particle physics experiments, says co-author Si Xie, a scientist at Fermilab who has a joint appointment at Caltech as a ...
Dr. Mathijssen primarily studies the physics of biological flows, such as the way bacteria swim upstream in blood vessels. But when he lost access to his lab during the Covid-19 shutdown ...
