The photoelectric effect, first explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, laid the foundation for quantum mechanics. It occurs when high-energy light strikes atoms, releasing electrons. This phenomenon is ...

An international team of physicists has successfully measured the size of a certain type of neutrino to a certain degree. In ...

Researchers have developed a novel experimental platform to measure the electric fields of light trapped between two mirrors ...

Our estimates of the size of a neutrino span from smaller than an atomic nucleus to as large as a few metres, but now we are ...

(Courtesy: Andrew Mueller/Columbia Engineering) Two independent teams in the US have demonstrated the potential of using the optical properties of nanocrystals to create remote sensors that measure ...

New York – January 22, 2025 – The Media Rating Council (MRC) has completed its accreditation process covering Nielsen’s innovative Big Data + Panel National TV measurement, after recently accrediting ...

Particle physics is the study of the elementary building ... Antihydrogen is the simplest atom of pure antimatter. Measurements of a pair of ultraviolet spectral lines with laser spectroscopy ...

The Hubble tension just got tenser — with new measurements revealing that the universe is expanding faster than our current understanding of physics can explain. Over the past decade ...

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - With snow in the forecast for Southwest Louisiana, you may be wondering how do you measure snow? Using a ruler or tape measure will work, but an even better method is called ...

The report’s findings suggest that BMI — the measurement traditionally used by medical professionals to determine healthy weight ranges — does not provide a nuanced enough assessment of ...

but not as our current understanding of physics predicts it. The longstanding question is: is the flaw in the measurements or in the models? Scolnic’s team’s new results adds tremendous ...
