A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...

A tiny wobbling particle may be about to reveal a fifth force of nature, scientists behind one of the biggest particle physics experiments say. Physicists at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, ...

The long-awaited first results from the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory show fundamental particles called muons behaving in a way that is not predicted by scientists’ best ...

A tiny elementary particle called the muon has won a big prize: the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics. Researchers with Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory—which is affiliated with the ...

The most beautiful experiment in physics, according to a poll of Physics World readers, is the interference of single electrons in a Young’s double slit. Robert P Crease reports Simply beautiful – the ...

Preliminary results from two experiments suggest something could be wrong with the basic way physicists think the universe works, a prospect that has the field of particle physics both baffled and ...

In a first, scientists have shown that they can send light through "slits" in time. The new experiment is a twist on a 220-year-old demonstration, in which light shines through two slits in a screen ...

In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...

A breakthrough quantum physics experiment has revealed a startling result. Scientists measured “negative time” as photons ...

Bending Time: The Successful Time Travel Experiments using Kozyrev Mirrors In December 1990, in a remote village above the Arctic Circle, two Russian scientists embarked on a daring experiment. Their ...
