Discover the fascinating chemistry behind metal-ammonia solutions and the solvated electrons that create an intense blue ...
If you drop a light object and a heavy object from a tower, which one reaches the ground first? As you may recall from high school physics, this is a trick question. Neglecting air resistance, they ...
Modern cellphones are also built on the work of today’s winners from 40 years ago.
Just over a week ago, European physicists announced they had measured the strength of gravity on the smallest scale ever. In a clever tabletop experiment, researchers at Leiden University in the ...
Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for research on the strange behavior of subatomic particles called ...
Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I cover the physics of nothing, everything, and the stuff in between. Researchers at Fermilab have made a measurement that could ...
On a February Zoom call, a team of University of Kentucky professors held their breath alongside hundreds of their colleagues across the country, waiting to find out the results of three years of work ...
Researchers have started to unravel the mysteries of how near-horizontal bowling in cricket leads to such tough-to-hit balls. The team employed a wake survey rake device made of multiple tubes ...
