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 ...

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 ...

Physicists now have a brand-new measurement of a property of the muon called the anomalous magnetic moment that improves the precision of their previous result by a factor of 2. An international ...

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 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 ...

Freshman Charlotte Hwang and Megan Atkinson, a junior, are part of an elite team of 12 at St. Francis, interviewed and chosen from a pool of over 100 applicants at their school alone to be part of ...

The exchange of energy between plasmas near astrophysical objects and magnetic fields produces some of the most extreme particle acceleration phenomena in the universe, such as black holes and neutron ...

One school might even have several labs: a science lab, an IT lab, and a language lab. Spaces where students learn beyond ...
