University scientists unraveling nature of Higgs boson
Jul 01, 2014 (SPX)
New physics research involving Kansas State University faculty members has helped shed light on how our universe works. A recently published study in the journa...
Measuring quantum systems with compressive sensing
Jul 01, 2014 (SPX)
In quantum physics, momentum and position are an example of conjugate variables. This means they are connected by Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, which says...
Reigning in chaos in particle colliders yields big results
Jul 01, 2014 (SPX)
When beams with trillions of particles go zipping around at near light speed, there's bound to be some chaos. Limiting that chaos in particle colliders is cruci...
Time-traveling photons connect general relativity to quantum mechanics
Jun 30, 2014 (RIA Novosti)
Scientists have simulated time travel by using particles of light acting as quantum particles sent away and then brought back to their original space-time locat...
Black hole trio holds promise for gravity wave hunt
Jun 30, 2014 (SPX)
The discovery of three closely orbiting supermassive black holes in a galaxy more than four billion light years away could help astronomers in the search for gr...
Can we see the arrow of time?
Jun 24, 2014 (SPX)
Einstein's theory of relativity envisions time as a spatial dimension, like height, width, and depth. But unlike those other dimensions, time seems to permit mo...
Scientists work on 'quantum superclock' to reveal mysteries of time itself
Jun 24, 2014 (RIA Novosti)
Physicists say they believe they're on track to creating a "quantum superclock" that would revolutionize the way the world tells time. If the work proves to be ...
Astronomers pierce galactic clouds to shine light on black hole development
Jun 23, 2014 (SPX)
An international team of scientists including a Virginia Tech physicist have discovered that winds blowing from a supermassive black hole in a nearby galaxy wor...
Big Bang breakthrough team allows they may be wrong
Jun 20, 2014 (AFP)
American astrophysicists who announced just months ago what they deemed a breakthrough in confirming how the universe was born now admit they may have got it wr...
Swiftly Moving Gas Streamer Eclipses Supermassive Black Hole
Jun 20, 2014 (SPX)
An international team of astronomers, using data from several NASA and European Space Agency (ESA) space observatories, has discovered unexpected behavior from ...
Horizontal levitation: the ultimate solution to particle separation
Jun 20, 2014 (SPX)
Magnetic separators exploit the difference in magnetic properties between minerals, for example when separating magnetite from quartz. But this exercise becomes...
Laser Physics upside down
Jun 20, 2014 (SPX)
At the Vienna University of Technology a system of coupled lasers has been created which exhibits truly paradoxical behaviour: An increase in energy supply swit...
Quantum mechanism triggers emission of tunable light at terahertz levels
Jun 20, 2014 (SPX)
Scientists have found that two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures with asymmetric design enable a new quantum mechanism, triggering the emission of tunable light a...
With light echoes, the invisible becomes visible
Jun 20, 2014 (SPX)
Scientists at the University of Bonn and the University of British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada) have developed a novel camera system which can see around the co...
Manipulating and Detecting Ultrahigh Frequency Sound Waves
Jun 16, 2014 (SPX)
An advance has been achieved towards next generation ultrasonic imaging with potentially 1,000 times higher resolution than today's medical ultrasounds. Researc...
Active particles may enhance phase separation
Jun 16, 2014 (SPX)
Systems containing self-propelling particles, such as bacteria or artificial colloidal particles, are always out of equilibrium but may show interesting transit...
Experts cast doubt on Big Bang bolstering discovery
Jun 14, 2014 (AFP)
Astrophysicists are casting doubt on what just recently was deemed a breakthrough in confirming how the universe was born: the observation of gravitational wave...
Long-range tunneling of quantum particles
Jun 13, 2014 (SPX)
One of the most remarkable consequences of the rules in quantum mechanics is the capability of a quantum particle to penetrate through a potential barrier even ...
Viewing deeper into the quantum world
Jun 13, 2014 (SPX)
One of the important tasks for quantum physics researchers and engineers is designing more sensitive instruments to study the tiny fields and forces that govern...
Exotic Particle Confirmed
Jun 10, 2014 (SPX)
or decades, physicists have searched in vain for exotic bound states comprising more than three quarks. Experiments performed at Julich's accelerator COSY have ...
