Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

Quantum theory and Einstein's theory of general relativity are two of the greatest successes in modern physics. Each works ...

The answer comes from a counterintuitive result of special relativity, a field of physics which is notoriously difficult to ...

Spencer Axani, assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is the inventor of CosmicWatch, a portable, ...

Planets usually stay close to their host stars, tracing steady paths shaped by gravity. Yet some planets break free and drift ...

It sounds like something from the plot of Interstellar, but this plan to beam precious data back to Earth—before it’s lost ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.
