A lot of the science from our accelerators is published long after collisions end, so storing experimental data for future physicists is crucial. About a billion pairs of particles collide every ...

The Polaris Dawn crew Jared Isaacman, Scott "Kidd" Poteet, Sarah Gillis and Anna Menon explain the experiments conducted during the mission. Also, see a time-lapse of Isaacman's spacewalk. Credit: ...

Quantum entanglement is one seriously long-distance relationship. Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter ...

A function generator drives two speakers placed in front of the class. The students cover one ear and slowly move their heads around to hear the interference pattern. Turn on the function generator ...

Physical-collapse theories have long offered a natural solution to the central mystery of the quantum world. But a series of increasingly precise experiments are making them untenable.
