Every year in October our UCSB Physics faculty present an explanation of the Nobel Prize in Physics for that year.

Explore the complex challenges of quantum gravity in this video, examining the evolution of gravity models and the necessity ...

Evidence of this quantum layer may be coming soon. Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: Physicists are still puzzling over ...

In the quest to unravel the mysteries of the universe, physicists are revisiting a 150-year-old theory that could illuminate ...

If you picture an electron breaking free from a solid, the process seems simple. Give it enough energy, and it should blast ...

Quantum entanglement is one of the strangest and most fascinating phenomena in physics. Even Einstein didn’t believe it - he called it “spooky action at a distance” - but science has proven it true.

This year’s Nobel Prize in physics has gone to three scientists who showed that it was possible even for large systems, made up of billions of these small particles, to exhibit quantum behaviour under ...

The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to three scientists on Tuesday for discovering that a bizarre barrier-defying phenomenon in the quantum realm could be observed on an electrical circuit in our ...

The mere mention of “quantum consciousness” makes most physicists cringe, as the phrase seems to evoke the vague, insipid musings of a New Age guru. But if a new hypothesis proves to be correct, ...

Modern multiverse fiction incorporates real physics equations and string theory principles rather than relying on pure ...
