An invisible force has long eluded detection within the halls of the world’s most famous particle accelerator—until now.

From a particle smasher encircling the moon to an “impossible” laser, five scientists reveal the experiments they would run ...

The supercollider is now being used to explore quantum phenomena, including a “magic” form of quantum entanglement.

Physicists have developed a novel approach to solving one of the most persistent problems in theoretical physics: uniting gravity with the quantum world. In a recent paper published in the journal ...

In 1887, one of the most important experiments in the history of physics took place. American scientists Michelson and Morley failed to measure the speed of Earth by comparing the speed of light in ...

Physicists have been central to imagining, developing, constructing and advancing nuclear weapons ever since the idea of a nuclear chain reaction came to Leo Szilard in 1933. Over the subsequent 90 ...

Physics may seem like its own world, but different sectors using machine learning are all part of the same universe. In 2017, Savannah Thais attended the NeurIPS machine-learning conference in Long ...

What if the flow of time isn’t as one-way as it seems? Researchers from the University of Surrey have uncovered evidence that in the strange world of quantum physics, time could theoretically run both ...

Scientists have observed an unexpected new behavior in a superconducting material. If physicists can figure out the cause, it could help them to find room-temperature superconductors. When you ...
