Darkness beats light? Einstein was right again as scientists discover darkness moving faster than light without breaking relativity rulesCan darkness really travel faster than light? A surprising new physics experiment suggests it can—at least in a very unusual way. Scientist...
In 1932, Carl Anderson Saw a Particle Curve the Wrong Way, And Discovered the PositronIn 1932, Arthur Compton's experiments with cosmic rays revealed an unexpected particle. This particle, observed via a cloud chamber, posses...
Quote of the Day by British physicist Paul Dirac: ‘God is a mathematician of a very high order and he used…’Theoretical physicist Paul Dirac believed the universe is built using advanced mathematics. He saw this order as the work of a master mathe...
CERN physicists report first observations of matter-antimatter imbalance in subatomic particleCERN physicists observed matter-antimatter imbalance in a baryon. Antiparticles possess the same mass as matter but opposite charge. The Bi...
