During the mid- to late-twentieth century, quantum physicists picked apart the unified theory of physics that Einstein’s theory of relativity offered. The physics of the large was governed by gravity, ...

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

Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source ...

Physicists in Europe have resolved a long-standing puzzle regarding the energy released when an isotope of the rare-earth element holmium decays via electron capture. They say that their extremely ...

New measurements of a subatomic particle provide the strongest hint yet that the leading theory of quantum physics that explains our universe may be missing a fundamental element, scientists say. The ...

Uncertainty affects the accuracy with which measurements can be made in quantum physics. To reduce this uncertainty, physicists have learned to "squeeze" certain measurements. Researchers are now ...

Recently in my physics lab, students were having trouble with the difference between mass and weight. I had ready answers---it’s a topic I’ve gone over hundreds of times. But after I explained that ...

Any exam preparation is a rigorous process which requires an overall understanding of the concepts and basics discussed in a chapter. If we talk about the Class 11 Physics, then one thing to be ...
