Tenets of quantum mechanics and special relativity, among other theoretical ideas, lead inexorably to string theory.

If you could take an apple and break it into smaller and smaller parts, you would find molecules, then atoms, followed by ...

For the first time, a group of physicists is arguing that a warp drive is not just a mathematical curiosity but something that fits within the known laws of nature. Instead of relying on exotic ...

There is one physics concept that almost everyone misunderstands, even after hearing it explained a hundred times. The common version sounds logical, but it creates the wrong picture in the brain.

Physics and physicists are central to the nation's security. This partnership between government and physics includes important areas such as the design of optics for reconnaissance satellites, new ...

The goal of drive-system engineers is usually pretty straightforward. Specify the smallest motor and drive needed to accelerate and run a load at a required rate, and determine the braking forces ...

The idea that everything that exists can be built from the bottom up has long held sway among physicists. Now, a new kind of science is under construction that centres conscious experience – and might ...

All trainees entering the Radiation Oncology Physics Residency program are required to satisfy the CAMPEP standards for program admission. That is, individuals must have acquired a strong foundation ...
