Discover how fusion energy reactors are evolving from lab experiments to pilot plants, why rare earth elements improve ...

Matter starts to behave differently at extremely low temperatures, creating conditions ideal for studying quantum physics and ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

Nearly a mile underground in South Dakota, construction is under way on the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), one ...

The cat experiment of Schrödinger has inspired debates not only in physics but also in philosophy, computer science, and even ...

Physics is supposed to be predictable. Drop a ball, and gravity pulls it down. Heat water, and it boils. Light travels in straight lines. Yet throughout history, scientists have encountered ...

Building the Nobel-prizewinning neutrino experiment was a big risk. To continue its success, scientists — and funders — need to stay bold.

In physics, breakthroughs are rare. Experiments are slow, expensive and often end up refining, rather than rewriting, our understanding of the universe. But what if the only constraint on scientific ...

Reflecting on the path of neutrino researcher Sanshiro Enomoto and the relationship between physics and ...
