NOAA has issued a severe G4 severe geomagnetic storm watch for Wednesday. Where will Northern Lights be visible?
This story is part of Short Wave's series Space Camp about all the weird, wonderful things happening in the universe. Check out the rest of the series. What does it take to launch into space? Other ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture. This helps, sort of, but as more numbers get thrown around, it can get ...
The deviance of a tiny particle called the muon might prove that one of the most well-tested theories in physics is incomplete. By Katrina Miller Katrina Miller, a science reporter, recently earned a ...
In the world of particle physics, you are never alone — quite literally. Every moment there is an invisible rainstorm of subatomic particles falling down on us from space. Unlike the kind of matter we ...
STOCKHOLM — John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis won the Nobel Prize in Physics on Tuesday for research into quantum mechanical tunneling. Clarke conducted his research at the ...
The CBSE Class 12 Physics curriculum is divided into four main units, each carrying equal weight in the final 70-mark theory paper. A smart study plan must balance the thorough understanding of ...
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: For nearly a century, the magnetic anomaly of the fundamental particle known as a muon has served as a means to test theories against experimental ...
The muon’s magnetism is still strong. Its most precise measurement yet is in line with a series of earlier results — and seals an embarrassing discrepancy with decades of theoretical calculations that ...
The Muon g-2 experiment (pronounced “gee minus two”) is designed to look for tantalizing hints of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. It does this by measuring the magnetic field ...
