Fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and even a few mammals rely on magnetoreception for navigation. But the exact mechanism ...

Axions are hypothetical light particles that could solve two different physics problems, as they could explain why some ...

For decades, physicists taught that superconductivity and magnetism could not share the same space. One state should destroy ...

Long considered a serious technical challenge, superradiance could actually help quantum devices go even further.

In a Columbia University laboratory in New York, physicist Sebastian Will and his team have reached one of ultracold physics’ ...

A hands-on physics experiment challenges a common misconception, using a balloon and a drone to reveal what really happens according to the laws of physics.

Using ultracold atoms and laser light, researchers recreated the behavior of a Josephson junction—an essential component of ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a massive scientific experimental facility at the European Organization for Nuclear Research ...

I have the facts to back it up. You may think you know physics but I’m here to tell you, you don’t. Physics works differently to how you think it does. Our researchers and writers have turned their ...

Type One Energy, a University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear fusion spinoff company, is partnering with the Tennessee Valley ...

With impurity levels better controlled, the plasma was able to move into what researchers describe as a stable “density free zone,” operating beyond the traditional limit without triggering ...

Chinese researchers at the EAST tokamak achieved a theoretically predicted regime with plasma densities above the previous ...
