We all know that water evaporates when the temperature climbs, but researchers have just shown that there's another factor at play. The breakthrough could solve long-standing atmospheric mysteries and ...

This is the first article in a two-part series discussing innovative teaching techniques in college physics classes. Today's installment will focus on interactive programs instated at other ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence of superconductivity and magnetism. Scientists had assumed that these two ...

A thought experiment that was at the heart of an argument between famed physicists Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr in 1927 has finally been made real. Its findings elucidate one of the core mysteries ...

Two landmark quantum experiments have sharpened one of the oldest arguments in modern physics, and the verdict is not kind to ...

In physics, breakthroughs are rare. Experiments are slow, expensive and often end up refining, rather than rewriting, our understanding of the universe. But what if the only constraint on scientific ...
