ALICE collaboration identifies three-phase process that allows particles to form despite energetically unfavourable ...

Light has always been the stage on which quantum mechanics performs its strangest tricks, and the double-slit experiment is ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

Physics experiments have changed the world irrevocably, altering our reality and enabling us to take gigantic leaps in technology. From ancient times to now, here's a look at some of the greatest ...

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

You can't see, feel, hear, taste or smell them, but tiny particles from space are constantly raining down on us.

A new experiment has demonstrated something that sounds physically impossible – light itself casting a shadow. It turns out that if you manipulate a laser just right, then hit it side-on with another ...
