If you drop a light object and a heavy object from a tower, which one reaches the ground first? As you may recall from high school physics, this is a trick question. Neglecting air resistance, they ...

Argonne’s solenoid facility provides powerful magnetic fields for testing. A limiting factor in modern physics experiments is the precision at which scientists can measure important values, such as ...

Modern physics has turned the old clockwork picture of the universe into something far stranger, filled with quantum probabilities, emergent patterns and deep puzzles about what counts as a “cause.” ...

Who is known as the Father of Modern Physics? Without a doubt, the answer is Albert Einstein. His groundbreaking theories changed the way we understand the universe — from the smallest particles to ...

In this last part of our series on recently digitized books from the Wenner Collection, we are focusing on works that showcase the reception and legacies of physicists and astrophysicists in the 20th ...
