Time already behaves strangely in modern physics. It can stretch, slow, and split depending on speed and gravity.
Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to Albert Einstein’s instincts about reality. By stripping classic thought ...
Physicists working with the famous Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, say recent experiments could ...
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 ...
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 ...

By feeding students the mysteries and wonder of modern physics, Don Lincoln hopes to ‘blow their minds.’ ...
In the era of precision cosmology, research often means big science: large observatories, highly complex instruments, ...
Who is known as the Father of Modern Science? Galileo Galilei holds this prestigious title for revolutionizing how we ...
The 50-foot-wide racetrack used to study muons traveled by barge around Florida and up the Mississippi, and then by truck across Illinois. Reidar Hahn, Fermilab About 50 years ago, physicists came up ...
The Matter of Everything tells the history of physics through experiments. Any book about the history of science for a general audience will, of necessity, be something of a distortion. The question ...
