Economics often borrows ideas from the sciences, yet unlike physics or chemistry, no country has ever run a controlled, pure economic experiment on a national scale. A pure experiment requires ...

Dr. Arijit Bose is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Delaware (UD). Prior to UD, he was a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT – Plasma Science and Fusion ...

Can a small lump of metal be in a quantum state that extends over distant locations? A research team at the University of Vienna answers this question with a resounding yes. In the journal Nature, ...

In a quiet corner of a physics building in Australia, a glass funnel filled with a tar-like substance has been dripping so ...

Nanomechanical systems developed at TU Wien have now reached a level of precision and miniaturization that will allow them to ...

What if you could create new materials just by shining a light at them? To most, this sounds like science fiction or alchemy, ...

With support from the W. M. Keck Foundation, a Stevens–Yale collaboration is now transforming graviton detection from a ...

A physics experiment published this year that claimed to measure a single photon in two places at once – and, in the process, discredit the idea of a multiverse – drew pushback from many sceptical ...

In physics, breakthroughs are rare. Experiments are slow, expensive and often end up refining, rather than rewriting, our understanding of the universe. But what if the only constraint on scientific ...

Scientists hunted dark matter and solar neutrinos with one of the largest experiments yet. While the neutrinos likely appeared, dark matter results couldn't be confirmed. When you purchase through ...

Sebastian Mizera grew up in Krakow, Poland, studied in the United Kingdom and Canada, and worked at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, before making his way to New York City ...

"Precision in these measurements is critical, as even subtle discrepancies could signal deviations from the model — potentially revealing new physics." When you purchase through links on our site, we ...
