When tectonic plates move, they rarely do so smoothly. Sometimes they slide almost imperceptibly; at other times, stress is ...

A beam of electrons crossed just a few millimeters of plasma, then helped trigger an effect that usually belongs to massive ...

The concept of entanglement links far-flung particles. That relationship can prove that someone is in the location they claim ...

A method that relies on hitting materials with neutrons can measure how much quantum entanglement hides within them, which ...

A flame goes out, and something in the room shifts with it. Not because matter has vanished, but because a structure has ...

For years, Rutgers physicist David Shih solved Rubik's Cubes with his children, twisting the colorful squares until the ...

But if you managed to wade through all the way to the end, you'd at least come back with one explainable piece of knowledge: ...

By tracing the origins of an unusual, short-lived particle, researchers have gathered some of the strongest evidence yet that ...

Nobel Laureate in Physics John Martinis will present his research as a part of the Cornell Undergraduate Research Board’s new ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Many-body physics is the study of large ensembles of interacting particles and their collective behaviour. These systems are notoriously difficult to simulate, yet they underpin phenomena such as ...

When movie and TV directors want to tinker with their footage in post-production, they have an array of tools at their ...
