A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...

When the legends of physics such as Galileo, Newton and Faraday were driving forward our knowledge of the Universe, they did so with simple tabletop equipment, working in small basement laboratories.

Prof. Emeritus Roger Hildebrand, who worked on the Manhattan Project as an undergraduate before conducting pioneering work in particle physics and astrophysics at the University of Chicago, died Jan.

In a little-known chapter of university history, the Manhattan Project scientist taught for several years in the Department of Physics, and his legacy appears in the fabric of the department Al ...
