How did the universe come into being? There are a multitude of theories on this subject. In a Physical Review Letters paper, ...

As a kid, did you ever play that game Guess Who? If you haven't, it's actually kinda fun. You have two players, each with a board in front of them. On the board are a bunch of flip cards with ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

The amplituhedron is a geometric shape with an almost mystical quality: Compute its volume, and you get the answer to a central calculation in physics about how particles interact. Now, a young ...

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation and their interaction. The fundamental particles are summarised by the standard model. This includes leptons ...

The 2025 Nobel Prize in physics has been awarded to a trio of scientists – a Briton, a Frenchman and an American – for their ground-breaking discoveries in the field of quantum mechanics. John Clarke, ...

Experimental particle physics is the practical investigation of the fundamental components of matter and radiation. A crucial tool in the arsenal of the experimental particle physicist is the particle ...

On Tuesday 7 October the winner(s) of the 2025 Nobel Prize for Physics will be announced. The process of choosing the winners is highly secretive, so looking for hints about who will be this year’s ...

For bringing quantum effects to a scale once thought impossible, three physicists have won the 2025 Nobel Prize in physics. In the 1980s, John Clarke, Michel Devoret and John Martinis demonstrated the ...
