Particle and high energy physics seeks to understand the fundamental constituents of matter and the interactions that govern them across the smallest distance scales and highest energies. The Standard ...
A 'boom' of light that appears when a particle exceeds the speed of light set by a medium could, in other contexts, signal a kind of quantum instability that could trigger what's known as vacuum decay ...
Across the global energy race, a cluster of breakthroughs is turning what once sounded like science fiction into a concrete engineering roadmap. From star-like fusion reactors to radically more ...
Researchers have achieved quantum "alchemy" that allows them to alter the properties of materials using high-powered ...
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced $71 million in funding for 25 projects in high energy physics that will use the emerging technologies of quantum information ...
Auburn University physics PhD student Jessica Eskew has been awarded a prestigious U.S. Department of Energy Office of ...
Particle and high energy physics is dedicated to unravelling the fundamental constituents of matter and the forces governing their interactions. This field encompasses experimental efforts at the ...
