Explore 25 science experiments that defied the laws of physics, revealing mind-bending phenomena that challenge intuition.

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

Researechers are testing superconducting microwire single-photon detectors (SMSPDs) for use in future particle physics exepriments. The detectors, which were designed and fabricated at JPL and ...

ANN ARBOR, Mich.–The results of a high-profile Fermilab physics experiment involving a University of Michigan professor appear to confirm strange 20-year-old findings that poke holes in the standard ...

We tend not to dwell on the fact that we exist in three dimensions. Forwards-back, left-right, up-down; these are the axes on which we navigate the world. When we try to imagine something else, it ...

A new class is coming to the UA next semester that will move scientists from the laboratory into the kitchen. Srinivas Manne, an associate professor of physics, will teach the new course, titled The ...

A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and future of particle physics research. Particle physicists have a reputation ...

In physics, breakthroughs are rare. Experiments are slow, expensive and often end up refining, rather than rewriting, our understanding of the universe. But what if the only constraint on scientific ...

The UA community will get a chance to see the magic behind physics this Friday at an annual show. The UA Physics Department’s Physics Phun Night, held at the Physics and Atmospheric Sciences building ...
