A team of quantum physicists has taken a concept that once lived purely in equations and turned it into hardware reality, ...

Results from KATRIN and MicroBooNE strongly disfavour a light sterile-neutrino explanation of longstanding anomalies.

Physicists have taken a step that sounds like science fiction: they have coaxed light into behaving as a “supersolid,” a ...

Take, for instance, quantum entanglement, which says that the state of one particle can be determined by examining the state ...

Now, two unrelated-but-similar experiments confirm that, in a double-slit experiment, detection of a photon’s path (its ...

Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

Physicists want to ramp up their efforts to weigh neutrinos, which are perhaps the most mysterious of all elementary particles. Currently, only one experiment in the world has a shot at making such a ...

The ALPS (Any Light Particle Search) experiment, which stretches a total length of 250 metres, is looking for a particularly light type of new elementary particle. Using twenty-four recycled ...

Quantum physics is the realm of the strange. And one of the strangest discoveries in the field is also one of the most fundamental: Particles fired at barriers with two slits in them can act like ...

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...
