The use of atomic clocks could help bring cosmology and astrophysics "down to Earth" by allowing scientists to investigate the mysteries of dark energy and dark matter in the lab. When you purchase ...

Editor’s Note: Professor WERNER HEISENBERG, who was born in Duisburg in 1901, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1932 for his work on the quantum theory. A member of the faculty of the ...

Since the Curie-Joliots of Paris discovered artificial radioactivity two years ago (TIME, Feb. 12, 1934), some 40 substances, including salt and copper, have been made radioactive by bombardment with ...

"Atomic clocks bring cosmology and astrophysics down to Earth, enabling searches for ultra-light particles that could explain dark matter in a laboratory." When you purchase through links on our site, ...

A new physics result two decades in the making has found a surprisingly complex path for the production of strange matter within atoms. “This data is the first time we study the lambda in the [atomic] ...

The mysteries of matter are arranged in tiers, like a series of dark basements, one below the other, leading down into the earth. When the physicists first discovered nuclear particles (protons and ...
