Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have overturned a 180-year-old scientific assumption, proving ...

Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...

Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...

Twelve physics labs worldwide will conduct a series of quantum-physics experiments on 30 November with the help of a global army of volunteers. Dubbed the “Big Bell Test“, the event involves members ...

Though predicted to exist, magnetic monopoles — hypothetical elementary particles with only one magnetic pole — have never been detected by scientists. But physicists have just accomplished the next ...

Researchers at the University of New Hampshire have harnessed artificial intelligence to accelerate the discovery of new ...

Using CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron, researchers generated plasma fireballs to simulate blazar jets. The beams stayed ...

The Lab community gathered in person and virtually on Dec. 15 to hear about the newest edition of the P5 report. As the particle physics community releases its strategic plan for the next 10 years and ...

Cross-sectional diagram of the planned 32-tesla superconducting magnet. The magnet will consist of three YBCO coils (yellow), three niobium-tin coils (red) and two niobium-titanium coils (blue). A ...

I just read an interesting new physics paper that's posted up on the arxiv. It's called the Statistical mechanics of the US Supreme Court, and it attempts to understand how Supreme Court judges ...
