This morning on BBC Radio 4, the mathematician Roger Penrose, physicist Basil Hiley, and philosopher Simon Saunders had a lively discussion about the “measurement problem in physics” with broadcaster ...

Scientists learned that reading a quantum clock requires orders of magnitude more energy than running it. This surprising imbalance reveals that observation itself shapes the flow and thermodynamics ...

The Muon g-2 Collaboration has doubled the precision of their 2021 measurement of the muon’s magnetic moment and it disagrees with the predictions based on the standard model of physics. Muons are ...

Where the information goes: After a quantum measurement, information is distributed between the measured information G, transmitted information F and reversible information R. (Courtesy: Seongjin Hong ...

The Franklin Institute announced Nov. 11 that it is awarding the 2026 Benjamin Franklin Medal in Physics, one of the nation’s ...

The flow of time isn’t as consistent as we might think – gravity slows it down, so clocks on the surface of Earth tick slower than those in space. Now researchers have measured time passing at ...

The W boson particle was discovered in 1983. It is not just a fundamental particle in physics, but together with the Z boson, W boson is responsible for what is known as the weak force, which is one ...

THE torr has recently been adopted as the British standard unit for the measurement of pressure in vacuum physics; but the fact that proposals have been made for further change 1,2 indicates that the ...

A new result from the Q-weak experiment provides a precision test of the weak force, one of four fundamental forces in nature. The proton's weak charge was found to be QWp=0.0719±0.0045, in excellent ...

By Opeyemi Akanbi. The Kennedy College of Sciences, Department of Physics, invites you to attend a Master of Science in Physics thesis defense by Opeyemi Samson Akanbi ...

Amid growing hopes for quantum technology, scientists have demonstrated the first proven quantum advantage in a photonic system. A new study shows how entangled light slashes the number of ...
