In Python Physics #22, we bring electric fields of a point charge to life with interactive Python simulations. Learn how to visualize field lines, understand the direction and magnitude of the ...

Numerical relativity uses supercomputers to simulate conditions occuring at the start of the universe, answering some of the ...

For over a decade, confusion over the size of the proton has held scientists back. Disagreeing measurements of the subatomic particle’s radius meant that scientists couldn’t test one of their key ...

The field of particle physics is approaching a critical horizon defined by challenges including unprecedented data volumes and detector complexity. Upcoming ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Do kaons decay using a new kind of physics? Researchers are trying to explain their anomalous findings. Their larger experiment is an ongoing ...

What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

Terahertz 2D coherent spectroscopy can be used to probe phase-resolved, multidimensional spectra of quantum materials. This Perspective discusses the capabilities of this method and provides a ...
