The simplest questions are often the best. Robert P Crease tries to answer one from a physics student in Kenya Seeking perfection Tennis balls are a low-cost way to explore simple physics concepts, ...

Through CU Boulder’s Physics through Evidence, Empowerment through Reasoning (PEER) Physics project, Professor Valerie Otero and her team are working with teachers to provide resources to support ...

A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...

Blasting and boring through a warren of tunnels in the abandoned Homestake Gold Mine in South Dakota, engineers are preparing for the installation of the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), ...

In this episode we explore the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment, a decades-long effort to build the most ambitious particle-physics project ever attempted on American soil. We follow the story ...

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory plans to launch a new AI project, called STELLAR-AI, to lower costs and heighten efficiency for experiments. The program is anticipated to launch in 2027, and is ...

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. How does ...
