The “horizon” he points to isn’t a doorway to the divine, other scientists say. Yet, modern physics has been trying to answer questions once left to religion.

In physics, the classical "Hall effect," discovered in the late 19th century, describes how a transverse voltage is generated ...

Blair Seidlitz, now a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University, studied near-collisions of nuclear beams at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland, and he did so despite having severely ...

When an electron travels through a polar crystalline solid, its negative charge attracts the positively charged atomic cores, causing the surrounding crystal lattice to deform. The electron and ...

It feels so obvious that time moves forward that questioning it can seem almost pointless.

A growing body of theoretical and experimental work in physics is converging on a striking possibility: time, the dimension humans experience as a constant forward flow, may not be a fundamental ...

A team of physicists led by Jared Fuchs at the University of Alabama in Huntsville has produced a peer-reviewed warp drive solution that works within known physics, using only positive energy and ...

Dr. Kevin J. Kelly, an assistant professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Texas A&M University and a member of the George P. and Cynthia Woods Mitchell Institute for Fundamental Physics ...

From the first Black physicist to earn a doctorate to modern-day trailblazers, AIP has resources that highlight Black excellence in the physical sciences. We invite you to take a trip with us and ...

Low-carbon energy systems are becoming increasingly complex due to high penetrations of renewable energy, distributed resources, and cyber-physical ...
