You're sitting in physics class, working on a traditional problem involving forces and acceleration, when you start to wonder where these terms even came from. Were they just dreamed up to bring ...

The future of particle acceleration has begun. Awake is a promising concept for a completely new method with which particles can be accelerated even over short distances. The basis for this is a ...

LYNCHBURG, Va. (WSET) — The Science Behind Severe Weather has come to a close, but don't worry, we have one more bonus experiment for you and the family! ABC13's Chief Meteorologist George Flickinger ...

Everyone should probably know that I'm obsessed with both physics and smart phones. If I can use my phone for a physics experiment, I'm good to go. That's exactly what I am going to do right now—use ...

Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space rockets, mathematical puzzles, dinosaur bones, black holes, supernovas, and sometimes, the drama of philosophical ...

The ultra smooth mirror was required to enable the researchers to perform experiments on electron acceleration in medium density gas jets, with the subsequent goal to ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new technique for accelerating electrons to very high energies over short distances. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research ...

Aristos is a Newsweek science and health reporter with the London, U.K., bureau. He is particularly focused on archaeology and paleontology, although he has covered a wide variety of topics ranging ...

Scientists at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, have run the first tests on a new kind of accelerator, exploring a method that can dramatically cut the size of future particle ...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)--operators of the world's largest particle physics lab--near Geneva, Switzerland, is said to be the largest ...
