For the first time, mechanical motion has been used to make atoms in a gas "spin," scientists at NIST report. The technique might eventually be used in high-performance magnetic sensors, enable ...

Roger Jones receives funding from STFC. I am a member of the ATLAS Collaboration As a physicist working at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, one of the most frequent questions I am asked is ...

The pursuit of eco-friendly gas mixtures in particle detectors represents a pivotal area of research, merging environmental stewardship with the high-performance demands of modern experimental physics ...

TO GET to Edda Gschwendtner’s experiment, you enter a small, brutalist building at CERN, Europe’s particle physics laboratory on the outskirts of Geneva, Switzerland. You head into the lift and ...

Physicists have created a one dimensional gas out of light particles for the first time. Studying how the photon gas behaves could help researchers discover some yet-unknown quantum optical effects.
