The concept of quantum entanglement is emblematic of the gap between classical and quantum physics. Referring to a situation ...

Researchers are trying to explain their anomalous findings. Their larger experiment is an ongoing investigation of CP symmetry. The anomalies could be measurement noise, a new kind of particle, or a ...

Hickory dickory dock, this nucleus could make a great clock. A special variety of the element thorium hosts an atomic nucleus that could be used to keep time, scientists say. In a first, researchers ...

One of the most often quoted, yet least understood, tenets of physics is the uncertainty principle. Formulated by German physicist Werner Heisenberg in 1927, the rule states that the more precisely ...

Researchers in Europe have developed a technique for obtaining accurate laser-based measurements of objects hidden behind complex scattering structures. They say that their mathematical formula, which ...

A digital registration system used with temperature- and humidity-controlled cuvettes for net photosynthesis and transpiration measurements in the field is described. The associated errors of the ...
