Physicists often find thrifty, ingenious ways to reuse equipment and resources. What do you do with 800 square feet of scintillator from an old physics experiment? Cut it up and give it to high ...
Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...
From levitating magnets to mind-bending psychology studies, these ten experiments reveal just how surprising - and mysterious ...
A supersolid is a paradoxical state of matter—it is rigid like a crystal but flows without friction like a superfluid. This ...
Plan a route, grab some snacks, and fuel up. Engineers and scientists have been sending massive magnets from U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) national labs on cross-country road trips. Subscribe to our ...

We’re Only Slightly Exaggerating When We Say This Footage of a Fusion Experiment Will Melt Your Face Off
New footage from the British fusion firm Tokamak Energy shows unbelievably hot plasma imprisoned in a magnetic field.
A worker rides on his bicycle in the CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) tunnel during maintenance. In late May, I had a chance to visit CERN, near Geneva, and visit with Jakub Mościcki, head of CERN’s ...
The so-called muon anomaly, first seen in an experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory in 2001, hasn’t budged. For 20 years, this slight discrepancy between the calculated value of the muon’s ...
