It’s a fundamental principle of physics that particles with opposite charges attract each other, while those with the same charge repel. But now, scientists at the University of Oxford have found that ...

There is now a new addition to the magnetic family: thanks to experiments at the Swiss Light Source SLS, researchers have proved the existence of altermagnetism. The experimental discovery of this new ...

Konrad Lehnert, a global leader in quantum science, the fundamental physics of quantum measurements, and the development of quantum technologies based on these concepts, was recently appointed the ...

A centuries-old fundamental law of physics called the principle of least action has been demonstrated using quantum objects for the first time. “A physicist’s ultimate dream is to write the secrets of ...

Over the short span of just 300 years, since the invention of modern physics, we have gained a deeper understanding of how our universe works on both small and large scales. Yet, physics is still very ...

Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...
