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

Abstract: In this talk, I’ll discuss two suborbital balloon experiments to which my group is currently contributing: ASTHROS: the Astrophysics Stratospheric Telescope for High Spectral Resolution ...

The experimental neutrino physics group is involved in three experiments around the world, described below. Our research involves the study of fundamental subatomic particles called neutrinos. In ...

In 1971, graduate student Stuart Freedman and postdoctoral fellow John Clauser took over a room in the sub-basement of Birge Hall at the University of California, Berkeley, and built an experiment ...

In a first, scientists have shown that they can send light through “slits in time” in time. The new experiment is a twist on a 220-year-old demonstration, in which light shines through two slits in a ...

Scientists have taken a major step toward solving a long-standing mystery in particle physics, by finding no sign of the particle many hoped would explain it. An international collaboration of ...

The Physics and Astronomy department focuses on the study of space, time, matter, and energy. Introductory courses provide students with the fundamentals of the subject, an introduction to the logic ...
