Physicists finally identified why some quantum materials seemingly lose their electrical conductivity for no reason.
The experiment at CERN produced pairs of electron and positron beams, propagating into an ambient plasma. The international team of researchers found that the beams were narrow and nearly parallel, ...
The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) detect rare events on a daily basis, but some are exceptionally rare, such ...
On July 4, 2012, researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Switzerland announced with great fanfare that they had ...
There is a limit to how big we can build particle colliders on Earth, whether that is because of limited space or limited ...
When the International Space Station plunges to its fiery doom in 2030 its loss to science will be incalculable, even if it remains an open question as to whether its successes matched humanity's ...
Due to government shutdown restrictions currently in place in the US, the researchers who headed up this study have not been able to comment on their work Laser plasma acceleration (LPA) may be used ...
Daniel Whiteson and Andy Warner’s upcoming book is a philosophical exploration of the humanity behind our desire to find ...
Anomalous” heat flow, which at first appears to violate the second law of thermodynamics, gives physicists a way to detect quantum entanglement without destroying it.
Every year in October our UCSB Physics faculty present an explanation of the Nobel Prize in Physics for that year.
The uncertainty inherent to quantum mechanics has long left physicists wondering whether the observations we make on the ...
Ghost particles' can zoom through you without a trace. Scientists are getting to the bottom of this cosmic mystery ...
