This morning on BBC Radio 4, the mathematician Roger Penrose, physicist Basil Hiley, and philosopher Simon Saunders had a lively discussion about the “measurement problem in physics” with broadcaster ...

What makes this new measurement so intriguing is that it challenges the value expected based on the Standard Model of particle physics. This new measurement took 10 years of analysis using data ...

The Muon g-2 Collaboration has doubled the precision of their 2021 measurement of the muon’s magnetic moment and it disagrees with the predictions based on the standard model of physics. Muons are ...

The measurement on the ion lasts only a millionth of a second. (Courtesy: F Pokorny et al., Stockholm University) Anyone familiar with quantum mechanics knows that the act of measurement forces ...

A highly sensitive quantum sensor from Jena has traveled nearly 9,000 kilometers: by truck to Hamburg, by ship across the ...

Might two bent crystals pave the way to finding new physics? The Standard Model of particle physics describes our world at its smallest scales exceptionally well. However, it leaves some important ...

Currently, the force of gravity can’t be explained in terms of quantum physics, but being able to measure its effects on smaller and smaller scales could unlock its secrets and perhaps reveal ...

Different measurements of the rate by which the universe expands yield different results. Could this mean we need new physics to understand what's going on?

Precision measurement of the proton's weak charge narrows the search for new physics Date: May 10, 2018 Source: DOE/Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility Summary: A new result from the Q ...
