Physics fans are a lot like surfers. Both think waves are really fun. For surfers, it’s all about having a good time. For physicists, it’s about understanding some of nature’s most important physical ...

Scientists review research on gravitational wave detectors as a historical example of quantum technologies and examine the fundamental research on the connection between quantum physics and gravity.

The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

Electron microscope image of the superfluid wave tank used in the experiments (blue) coupled to an optical fibre which brings laser light in and out of the device. The zoom-in shows the photonic ...

Investigating the wave properties of matter with vibrating molecules Date: February 19, 2021 Source: Heinrich-Heine University Duesseldorf Summary: Researchers used a novel, high-precision laser ...

The eighth-grade hallway at Danville Middle School recently was filled with students using Slinkies to conduct experiments about ocean waves. Eighth-graders at DMS were studying astronomy. After ...

WASHINGTON, March 15, 2022 -- Quantum physical experiments exploring the motion of macroscopic or heavy bodies under gravitational forces require protection from any environmental noise and highly ...
