The Physics That Curves a Ping-Pong Ball Just Showed Up in Quantum Light
Putting spin on a ping-pong ball changes its trajectory – a similar effect also occurs in the quantum…

CERN recreates cosmic ray collisions to reveal what happens when space particles hit Earth
Physicists at CERN have directly measured proton-oxygen collisions at 9.62 TeV per nucleon pair, closely recreating an important…
A Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt project combining acoustics, MEG and fMRI found that humans can actually hear sounds below the assumed 16-hertz lower limit of audibility, and that the auditory cortex lights up in response to infrasound the ear was long thought to ignore entirely
Human hearing does not end at a hard wall marked 16 or 20 hertz. Sensitivity falls sharply as…
Entanglement Survives Violence of CERN’s Large Hadron Collider
Physicists from the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider have confirmed that quantum entanglement — the phenomenon…
While a human operator reacts to a fusion plasma in seconds and its instabilities grow in thousandths of one, a controller ran a San Diego tokamak’s six microwave heaters 50 times a second, called a magnetic tear 200 milliseconds early and put current where it would have formed
KeysQuestions4Vehicle1 The PACMAN controller running on a real tokamak isn’t a chatbot bolted onto a press release —…
Venus looks pale yellow from space, but modelling suggests that if the liquid inside its cloud droplets were collected into a container, it could appear almost black—the unidentified absorber must be extraordinarily powerful, highly concentrated, or both.
Venus is a pale yellow world in ordinary visible light. In ultraviolet images, however, its upper clouds are…
