By resolving a paradox about light in a box, researchers hope to clarify the concept of energy in quantum theory. ..
Tiny wobbles in Earth’s gravitational field could help detect big tremors faster, but they’re hard to tease out from the planet’s seismic noise. ..
Let’s calculate whether the lightsaber-catching, Sarlacc-pit-avoiding maneuver can be done by mere mortals or requires help from the Force. ..
An experiment conducted on hybrid matter-antimatter atoms has defied researchers’ expectations. ..
A new analysis of W bosons suggests these particles are significantly heavier than predicted by the standard model of particle physics. ..
In a recent video, the Slo Mo Guys fired at the clicky-clacky desk toy with a superhigh-speed ball. It looks pretty cool—and the physics are even cooler. ..
Researchers have designed a molten salt battery that turns solid at room temperature, trapping the energy inside. ..
