From Franklin’s kite in a storm to Einstein’s special relativity to QED - electromagnetism has gone on to explain everything ...

The search for sterile neutrinos at ORNL's PROSPECT-I has not found evidence, placing limits on their likelihood and mass.

Gravitational-wave detection technology is poised to make a big leap forward thanks to an instrumentation advance led by physicist Jonathan Richardson of the University of California, Riverside. A ...

We previously covered one such “gravity telescope” with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). Another one is the Japanese project Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector (KAGRA).

The PROSPECT detector at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's High Flux Isotope Reactor performed precise antineutrino ...

Cold atom experiments trap atoms to probe quantum effects, enabling ultra-precise sensing, timekeeping, and monitoring of ...
