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 ...

In this 2018 photo made available by CERN, Nikolai Bondar works on the LHCb Muon system at the European Organization for Nuclear Research Large Hadron Collider facility outside of Geneva. Preliminary ...

Researchers have moved one step closer to solving one of science’s greatest mysteries—why the universe is filled with matter instead of nothing. Scientists at Indiana University have made a major ...

When hundreds of physicists gathered on a Zoom call in late February to discuss their experiment’s results, none of them knew what they had found. Like doctors in a clinical trial, the researchers at ...

The 2025 Nobel prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists for the discovery of an effect that has applications in medical devices and quantum computing.

Sam Baron receives funding from the Australian Research Council. The Matter of Everything tells the history of physics through experiments. Any book about the history of science for a general audience ...

Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics goes to three scientists who made electrical circuits act like atoms - an experiment which lies at the heart of our quantum future.

The award was given to Briton John Clarke, Frenchman Michel H. Devoret and American John M. Martinis for “experiments that ...

One of the smallest things in the universe could have just changed everything we know about it. On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in ...

New scientific results confirm an anomaly seen in previous experiments, which may point to an as-yet-unconfirmed new elementary particle, the sterile neutrino, or indicate the need for a new ...

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 ...
